Accelerating the green energy transition
+380 (66) 508-07-64To your attention the main theses of the speech of the CEO of the Ukrainian company “Avenston” Dmitro Lukomskyi about the features of the functioning of the solar energy market in Ukraine “The structure of development and key trends”:
- According to world forecasts, by 2050, on average, the total world share of solar and wind generation will be about 50% of the total generation.
- In 2018, there are many solar capacities were introduced in twice (about 500 MW) than in the past (250 MW). And next year is expected to be at least the same in terms of growth.
- Investors who have decided to build solar power plants understand that the rules of the game will change, and are eager to complete their projects by the end of next year.
- The new legislation will stimulate the arrival of systemic foreign investors in the Ukrainian PV generation market. In 5-10 years we will reach a growth rate of 20-30% per year.
- Today in Ukraine, the share of “green” in the energy balance, excluding hydro, is only about 2%.
- Today, at the state level, there is no clearly stated goal regarding the share of “green” generation in the energy balance to which current and potential market participants should be guided.
- Today, Avenston is working with projects in the solar industry in the range of installed capacity of 5-20 MW. Our 2019 strategic plans foresee a new level of annual capacity of 300 MW of PV-generation construction in ten regions of Ukraine.
- Avenston stands for the strategic development in Ukraine of distributed generation, small solar power plants on the facades and roofs of houses. This will remove the potential problem of balancing generation and consumption at the level of the entire power grid.

Galvanic Corrosion Considerations for PV Arrays
Photovoltaic modules are designed for an operational life span of more than 25 years in the field. The design of the entire installation, not just these expensive components, should target a similar life span.
Passive Houses and their principles of design
Passive houses have a very low energy loss due to the use of passive methods of energy save (insulation materials, innovative engineering and architectural solutions). The specialists of our company have prepared an interesting and understandable material about the basic principles of an energy efficient building.
History of solar energy prices
There is a clear trend towards an increase in the installation of solar power plants. One of the main reasons for this is the fall in the price of photovoltaic modules, which are one of the most important components of any solar power plant. Let's take a look at why this is happening.
Bioenergy: Past, Present and Future
Bioenergy plays an important role in many low carbon development scenarios and can be particularly useful in long haul transport where alternative energy sources are not available. The expanded role of bioenergy is still under consideration, and sometimes disputes over the sustainability of production and use.
