Lithuania’s Modus Group is investing EUR 30 million in its first Ukraine solar station, a 35-MW solar power plant in Zhytomyr, the region directly west of Kyiv. Noting that the Vilnius-based company has invested in solar projects in Belarus, Lithuania and Poland, Ruslan Sklepovic, a board member for the renewable energy company, said: “We are constantly looking for opportunities to invest in solar energy projects across Europe.” During the first half of 2018, the amount of Ukraine’s completed solar projects increased by 27% to 841 MW.
