Ukraine's second most profitable bank, state-owned Oschadbank, state-owned Ukrgasbank, and PUMB will provide the funding for the project, which includes six energy storage installations across the country, totaling 200 megawatts to power 600,000 households.
Kyiv wants to up this to 27% by 2030. Other similar energy storage systems in Eastern Europe include Lithuanian electricity transmission system operator Litgrid's 200-MW units launched in 2023 and a 55-MW battery energy storage system in Razlog in southwestern Bulgaria that went online in 2024.
This solar plus storage project was realised completely by EPC company Solarpro, in Razlog, Southwestern Bulgaria, where the project is located. The new facility officially went live in early June, with the delivery of Hithium's 16 energy storage containers, each with a capacity of 3.44 MWh, to Solarpro.
Battery energy storage facilities are like a large power bank connected to energy grids, and are crucial for storing energy created by renewables like solar and wind for later use. The share of renewable energy in Ukraine's grid was about 10% before Russia's full-scale invasion. Kyiv wants to up this to 27% by 2030.
