6 FAQs about [Ukrainian energy storage project plant operation]
How did Ukraine manage to preserve its electricity production under Russian fire?
Ukraine not only managed to preserve its electricity production under heavy Russian fire, but it also managed to export a significant amount of energy to the European Union, thanks to the successful synchronization of the Ukrainian power grid with the European network ENTSO-E.
Is Ukraine underperforming on renewables?
Renewable energy production came from solar power (56 percent), wind power (33 percent), biomass, and biogas (8 percent), as well as small hydropower (3 percent). Yet, what these numbers do not show is that Ukraine has been largely underperforming when it comes to renewables.
How will the energy transition affect Ukraine's energy policy?
Decisions made in Brussels on the exact contours of the energy transition will have a major influence on energy policy decisions made in Ukraine. The country has significant potential to produce decarbonized and renewable electricity. On February 24, 2022, dozens of Ukrainian technicians and engineers kept a late watch.
How much solar energy can Ukraine produce?
According to the International Organization of Renewable Energy, considering local natural conditions, Ukraine could theoretically produce the equivalent of 200 GW of wind energy and 70 GW of solar energy —five times more than its current total installed capacity.
Why is Ukraine a good place to invest in energy?
It has become a field of increased cooperation between Kyiv and Brussels, offering a potential blueprint for other sectors with a view to future integration. Despite the immense destruction caused by the Russian army, which specifically targeted the country’s energy infrastructure, Ukraine has shown extraordinary resilience.
