DTEK is building a wind farm near the front, which will provide electricity to more than a million families. How can Ukraine attract RES investment?

DTEK representative Nataliya Slobodian said: “This is the only case in world history when a renewable generation facility is being built 100 km from a front line under martial law. We have completed the first 114 MW phase of the Tyligulska wind farm.”

She clarified that currently, there is enough capacity to provide electricity to 200,000 Ukrainian families. According to Slobodian, the wind farm’s second phase can generate 384 MW, enough for another 900,000 families.

DiXi Group analyst Bohdan Serebrenikov added that the Tyligulska wind farm is also unique in that it “did not go for the green tariff” and did not use any state support. Investment in the facility will amount to €650M. Serebrenikov noted that green reconstruction is a very important condition for accessing European funds and mechanisms because potential investors in the EU and the US will not support old technologies.
