Ukraine's centralized energy infrastructure has suffered extensive damage, causing serious challenges for the sustainable operation of businesses in Ukraine. Norwegian-Ukrainian Company Fenix Repower is currently developing several renewable energy projects worth close to 700 MW across Ukraine to close this gap. In addition to these projects, Fenix Repower is open to considering additional power-consumer tailormade projects connected directly to the customer’s facilities. These on-site or near on-site projects allow to achieve high levels of energy independence from the grid.
Questions for discussion:
- How to get a high level of power autonomy (or full autonomy) from the state grid in conditions of power cuts?
- How to ensure energy price certainty at a competitive rate?
- Key features of the different technologies: Wind, PV-Solar, BESS, Gas Peaker
- Organizational, financial and technical features of project partnership with Fenix Repower
- Energy management: variety of arrangements between the power consumer and the power producer in Ukraine
