Our Projects

The goal of ‘Solar Supports Ukraine’ campaign is to finance as many installations of solar on schools and hospitals, solar off-grid trailers and solar powerbanks as possible.

Donations will be used to buy solar equipment which is urgently needed on site.

We will support projects from our implementation partners, the RePower Ukraine Foundation and the Energy Act for Ukraine Foundation. Currently, they include:

RePower Ukraine Foundation Projects

⦁ Project Konotop Central District Hospital 30.8 kW, 57.6 kWh storage – ca. 69 422 €

Installation of a 30.8 kW hybrid solar power plant with a 57,6 kWh battery. Power plant was destroyed so battery is vital for intensive care, maternity and surgical departments.

⦁ Project Bila Tserkva City Hospital No.2 51.8 kW, 23.04 kWh storage – ca. 67 440 €

Roof-top solar station with a capacity of 51.8 kWt and a battery with a capacity of 23,04 kWh. Serves for the whole region (960 visits per shift) for Building B emergency, trauma and operation block.

⦁ Project Kharkiv Regional Children`s hospital No.1
35 kW, 16 kWh storage – ca. 50 974 €

Installation of a 35 kW hybrid solar power plant with a 16kWh battery. The equipment will provide 2 hour of autonomous work.

⦁ Project Poltava City Clinical Hospital No.1
51.8 kW, 24.08 kWh storage – ca. 65 440 €

Installation of a 51.8 kW hybrid solar power plant with a 24.8 kWh battery. Hospital has a critical stroke department for 50 beds.

⦁ Project Kyiv Regional Perinatal Center 21.6 kW, 12.4 kWh storage – ca. 46 740 €

A rooftop PV plant with a capacity of 21.6 kW (1/3 of hospital consumption) and a battery with a capacity of 12.4 kWh.

Below you will find a list of projects which our partners have previously donated to.

Solar PV for 3 Ukrainian hospitals

Members of the solar energy association of Ukraine have already completed solar PV projects for 2 hospitals in Eastern and Western Ukraine. They supply electricity in case of power shortages, and provide green electricity.

Mobile solar trailers for hospitals

Mobile hospitals need reliable power supply to provide surgery and other urgent services to people. These mobile solar trailers can be used also by municipalities affected by war, instances where the power supply is absent for months while the grid is damaged and cannot be restored.

The KNESS group has developed mobile solar trailers with electricity storage systems. The solution is designed and focused to help doctors and volunteers.

Each PV Sich trailer includes 2.25 KW PV panels and 7.2 KW batteries.

Currently, almost 30 Sich Smart PV solar stations have been installed. The first batch of Sich Mobile PV installations are already generating electricity for field hospitals in Eastern Ukraine. The initiative was implemented by the ASEU in partnership with the German company BayWa r.e. Global, a member of SolarPower Europe.

Rebuilding Irpin School with solar

On 25 November 2022, the BSW launched their ‘Solar Aid’ campaign which aims to aid the reconstruction of schools in Ukraine. They began by installing a solar power system with a battery storage unit at School 17 in Irpin. The PV system was financed entirely out of donations from the German solar industry.

Due to the war in Ukraine, more than 1939 schools have been damaged today, and most do not have electricity.

The cost of 1 school = 20 kW solar power plant with electricity storage systems is €40,000.

Previously, BSW partnered with the Energy Act for Ukraine Foundation on the "100RESforSchools" project, which aims to equip 100 schools with solar stations.
