Ukraine's annual solar energy volume is higher than that of Germany, one of the industry leaders. From 2018 to 2020, solar energy capacity increased nearly fivefold. As of 2024, solar power plants account for about 75% of “green” energy production in Ukraine (excluding large hydropower plants).
In 2023, Ukrainian businesses invested around USD 150 mln in solar energy. The plan is to reduce greenhouse gas emissions to 35% of the 1990 level and achieve carbon neutrality by 2060 by replacing coal energy with renewable sources.
Before the full-scale invasion, Ukraine had 34 wind power plants with 699 wind turbines generating electricity at an average capacity of 3.5 MW. In 2023, the most significant new power plant commissioned was DTEK's Tiligul wind power plant in the Mykolaiv region, with a generating capacity of 78 MW.
Solar insolation in Ukraine ranges from 1100 to 1500 kWh/m², making the entire country suitable for solar power plant deployment. The southern regions of the country are optimal for operation. Approximately half of all solar power plants are concentrated in six regions: Ivano-Frankivsk, Dnipropetrovsk, Vinnytsia, Khmelnytskyi, Kyiv, and Mykolaiv.
