June 26, 2025, within the framework of the IV Eurasian Economic Forum, the award ceremony and presentation of the projects of winners and prizewinners of the third International Climate Contest «Green Eurasia» was held, organized by the Eurasian Economic Commission and the Agency for Strategic Initiatives to Promote New Projects (ASI).
A total of 295 applications from 16 countries took part in the contest. Expert evaluation and selection of the most effective practices in climate mitigation and adaptation were held in 10 nominations. 41 projects became winners of the contest, 5 of which are from Belarus.
Among the winning projects was RUE PA Belorusneft and its charging network for electric vehicles, which became the best in the nomination “Climate-neutral transport systems and solutions”.
The expert group and the contest presidium assessed Belarus’s comprehensive approach to creating charging infrastructure. Today Belarus is one of the leaders in the field of electric transport among the CIS countries. The created charging network is the largest in the Eurasian Economic Union. Over the past year alone, the number of electric vehicles in the country has more than doubled – from 9,866 to 23,166 units. According to forecasts by the RUE PA Belorusneft, by the end of the year there will be 48 thousand electric vehicles in the country, and by 2030 – 300 thousand.
The implementation of the project by RUE PA Belorusneft will contribute to Belarus fulfilling its obligations under the Paris Climate Agreement and the National Action Plan for the Development of a Green Economy. In addition, it will increase the number of charging stations to 50 thousand and reduce harmful emissions by 2 million tons of carbon dioxide per year, which will make an important contribution to the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals 12, 13 and the other SDGs by the Republic of Belarus.
