DTEK’s 240-megawatt Pokrovska solar power plant, the largest in Ukraine, started producing electricity on Oct. 31, 2019.
The top 10 investors in renewable energy in Ukraine earned more than Hr 14 billion ($525.9 million) due to the rapid growth of wind and solar power last year.
Renewables jumped from 2% of Ukraine’s energy balance at the start of 2019 to more than 8% today. Thanks to Ukraine’s high euro-denominated feed-in tariff, this energy accounts for about a quarter of total Ukrainian energy costs.
