The Strategic Investment Council has approved the State Single Project Pipeline (SPP) of public investments for 2026.
It is the final list of the most prioritized and strategically important projects and programs across different public investment sectors.
All projects and programs were developed in line with the new methodology for preparing Public Investment Projects (PIPs) — the Ukrainian “five-case model”, which is based on international best practices and incorporates British and European approaches to the allocation of public investments.
The initiatives included in the SPP correspond to the main streams defined by the Medium-Term Plan of Priority Public Investments of the State and take into account cross-cutting national goals, in particular:
- rational use of energy resources;
- introduction of energy-efficient technologies;
- adaptation of infrastructure to new challenges and environmental protection;
- adherence to the principles of equality, inclusiveness and accessibility for all categories of the population.
Based on the expert evaluation of the Ministry of Economy, Ministry of Finance and Ministry for Development, the State Single Project Pipeline includes 89 projects and 60 programs, including 75 ongoing, financed from the 2025 budget, as well as 74 new projects and programs.
They will be eligible for full or partial financing from the 2026 state budget.
The approved SPP covers the following public investment sectors:
- environment;
- energy;
- housing;
- municipal infrastructure and services;
- education and science;
- healthcare;
- legal affairs and judiciary;
- public services and digitalization;
- public finance;
- social sphere;
- transport.
According to Cabinet of Ministers Resolution No. 527 of February 28, 2025, the stages of project preparation include the development of a pre-feasibility study and a full feasibility study. This involves justifying the strategic, economic, financial, managerial and commercial feasibility of PIPs. For programs, feasibility studies must justify the strategic, economic, financial and managerial feasibility.
The DREAM Project Office team was involved in coordinating the preparation of national-level projects and programs with their initiators. Presentations were held, explanations of the preparation logic were provided, training on using the DREAM system was conducted, and support for responsible stakeholders was ensured.
The State Single Project Pipeline of public investments can be accessed on the DREAM public portal - dream.gov.ua/spp-pipeline - as well as in the analytics module.
In addition, the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine has approved the resolution “On Amendments to the Resolution of the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine of February 28, 2025 No. 527” on public investment management - https://bit.ly/41roW9f The amendments are aimed at:
- improving pre-investment preparation procedures;
- improving the quality of feasibility studies;
- introducing unified approaches to the use of the DREAM system;
- differentiating requirements depending on the project value.
The reform of public investment management is changing the strategic approach to the development of communities and regions. By the end of August, local project teams must form and approve Medium-Term Plans of Priority Public Investments (MIP). After that, to implement the main directions of the MIPs, communities and regions will prepare public investment projects and programs. SPPs at the community and regional levels must be formed in October.
The SPPs at the regional or community level, as well as the national SPP, are formed using DREAM system, which makes project pipelines transparent and accessible for review, analysis and monitoring by line ministries, international partners, international financial organizations, the public, and potentially increases opportunities for obtaining financing from other sources.
The line ministries, responsible for reform implementation, the DREAM Project Office team, the Open Contracting Partnership and other partners are preparing explanatory and training campaigns to strengthen local capacities and ensure effective public investment management.
