According to the Mykolaiv City Council, solar power plants not only increase energy autonomy but also allow for significant savings on utilities.

Alla Lutska, Director of the Department of Energy, Energy Saving and the Introduction of Innovative Technologies, said that the active installation of solar power plants in Mykolaiv institutions began in 2023.

As a reminder, six solar power plants have been installed on the roofs of medical facilities in Mykolaiv over the past two years with donor funds.

Earlier, the Mayor of Mykolaiv, Oleksandr Sienkevych , announced plans to create an energy island «in the city», which will ensure stable heat supply during large-scale power outages.

In early 2025, Denmark allocated more than €26 million in aid to Mykolaiv region. Part of this money will be spent on the energy sector: various equipment and solar panels to increase energy resilience.

At the same time, it is known that solar stations will be installed at the facilities of «Mykolaivvodokanal». The work will be financed by partners from Denmark.
