Accelerating the green energy transition
+380 (66) 508-07-64Avenston will be the Megawatt sponsor of the CISOLAR&SEF-2020 solar energy conference and exhibition in Central and Eastern Europe, which will will take place in Kiev on October 20-22.
CISOLAR&SEF-2020 is the only event focused on the emerging solar energy markets in Europe. Over the past nine years, CISOLAR has been gathering market participants whose interests are related to solar energy projects. This year’s event will bring together industry leaders, equipment suppliers and contractors from 30 countries. SEF&CISOLAR-2020 as a joint forum will be held for three days online and one day offline in Kiev (Fairmont Hotel). The Forum has a common history with the formation of renewable energy as an industry in Eastern Europe and Central Asia, and for many years has developed as an international serial platform (in parallel, taking place in a number of countries in Eastern Europe and the CIS).
The topic of the presentation by Avenston this year will be devoted to the most promising direction of development of the solar energy market in Ukraine in an unstable current situation – the construction of rooftop solar power plants for their own needs of commercial facilities.Recent legislative changes make projects using the «green» tariff risky and difficult to predict. But, the use of solar electricity for our own is already more and more economically attractive.
Ukraine is located in a region favorable for the construction of solar power plants with a sufficient level of solar insolation, even in the northern regions of the country. In 8 months of 2020, the share of renewable energy increased to 13.3% against 8.9% in the same period in 2019.

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.
Opportunities to invest in Ukraine
Ukraine is taking important strides to increase the use of renewable-energy sources and alternative fuels as part of its broader strategy to reduce its reliance on traditional fossil fuels.
Non-traditional RES: reality or fiction?
The overall global trend today is towards environmental awareness, and renewable energy is under scrutiny. AVENSTON represents the review of non-traditional RES: lightning energy, cryogenic energy, gravitational energy and mirror mosaic in the Mojave Desert as concentrated-solar technology.
