    Promoter – Financial Intermediary

    PJSC UKRHYDROENERGO

    Location

    Description

    Construction of a hydropower pumped storage plant in Central Ukraine with an installed capacity of 1,000 MW.

    Objectives

    The project will have multiple benefits, including substituting for energy currently generated inefficiently by intermittent operation of oil and gas-fired thermal power plants, thereby producing significant savings in fuel, carbon emissions and maintenance costs. The project will also improve the security of supply by providing 1 000 MWe of dispatchable reserve capacity as well as additional frequency and voltage control capability. This will help Ukraine stabilise its power system, contribute to security of supply in Ukraine and thus facilitate possible future interconnection of the Ukrainian system with the ENTSO-E Continental European power system.

    Sector(s)

    • Energy - Electricity, gas, steam and air conditioning supply

    Proposed EIB finance (Approximate amount)
