Grid-connected electricity generation from renewable sources

As a renewable electricity generation project, Pokrovska SF contributes to increase of renewable energy share in the total final energy consumption of Ukraine through providing 353,723.82 MWh clean energy annually to the Ukraine grid. 
Project activity has also supports Ukraine in stimulating and commercializing the use of grid connected renewable energy technologies and markets, which are far more environmentally friendly. This will contribute to diversification of Ukraine electricity generation mix which is currently dominated by the fossil fueled power plants. Such a diversification is a long term benefit of the project activity for combatting global climate change.


SDG 7: Affordable and Clean Energy

During construction and operation period, project directly and indirectly generates job opportunities, which results in enhancing local employment and contributing to reducing local poverty. Project provided short term jobs during construction; and has been providing long term jobs during operation. Currently, project employees 34 people, and all of them are the residents of Nikopol district.

SDG 8: Decent Work and Economic Growth

The most significant SDG impact of the project is its contribution to combat climate change. Project activity, by producing renewable electricity, will annually achieve 227,503 tCO2/year emission reductions.



SDG 13: Climate Action

Pokrovska Solar Farm (SF) is a renewable type of solar power plant with an operation start date of 01/10/2019, located in in Dnipropetrovsk region in Ukraine. The purpose of the project is to provide renewable electricity to the Ukraine grid through harnessing solar energy. Project aims reducing the dependency on fossil fuel based electricity generation in Ukraine, hence reducing the local environmental pollution and contributing to combatting global climate change. Pokrovska SF is a large scale project activity with an installed capacity of 240 MW, providing 353,723.82 MWh/year clean electricity to the Ukraine grid system, and achieving 227,503 tCO2 of emission reduction annually. Project activity is expected to achieve 2,275,030 tCO2 emission reductions during the 10-year crediting period.
