USAID Awards Tetra Tech $85 Million Contract for Improved Energy Security in Ukraine
Tetra Tech, Inc. announced that the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) awarded the Company an $85 million single-award contract to support enhanced energy security in Ukraine. The five-year USAID/Ukraine Energy Security through Competitive Energy Markets Program aims to improve the legal and regulatory environment in the energy sector and increase the resilience of energy supplies in Ukraine.

Specific tasks include developing energy market models to create competitive energy market reforms, completing renewable energy pre-feasibility assessments, and developing creative financial incentive mechanisms to facilitate private sector investment in renewable energy. Tetra Tech also will collaborate with local organizations in implementing the program to develop Ukraine’s institutional capacity, encourage ownership of results, and ensure sustainability of reforms.
