The construction of a hybrid solar power station at a medical facility in the Dnipropetrovsk region was completed in December 2025 — during one of the most challenging periods for the area. Throughout the project’s implementation, the region remained under constant threat of missile strikes, while hostile drones were regularly detected in the sky. Despite the high risks and ongoing danger, the work never stopped, as reliable electricity supply is critically important for the hospital.
The Dnipropetrovsk region continues to face systemic power supply challenges caused by the war. At the same time, its medical facilities provide daily care not only to local residents but also to patients from neighboring eastern regions. This is why the installation of a solar power station became a vital step in strengthening the hospital’s energy resilience and ensuring uninterrupted operation of medical equipment during emergency outages and blackouts.
The 30kW hybrid solar power station, equipped with an energy storage system with a capacity of 62,1kWh, provides up to three hours of autonomous operation for the surgical building, where surgeries and life-saving resuscitation procedures are performed every day.
Thanks to the solar power station, the hospital will save approximately €13,387 annually on electricity costs. Over 25 years of operation, the project will also help prevent 577 t of CO2 emissions.
The installation of the solar power station was implemented by The Energy Act for Ukraine Foundation, with the support of Huawei Ukraine, in partnership with GlobalGiving and LONGi, within the framework of the “50SolarHospitals” project.
