Our First Solar Power Plant is Now Operational at Rozhniativ Hospital!

September 1, 2025

We've officially opened a 51 kW solar power plant on the roof of Rozhniativ Multidisciplinary Hospital in western Ukraine. Thanks to this system, critical departments, including surgery, trauma, obstetrics and gynecology, neurology, emergency care, and intensive care, are now powered by clean, renewable energy, helping the hospital continue operations even during blackouts.

The solar plant generates approximately 50,000 kWh annually, saving the hospital around 550,000 UAH per year and significantly reducing its dependence on the national grid, especially vital amid ongoing attacks on Ukraine’s energy infrastructure.

This project was made possible thanks to the support of our financial partner Solarspar, and in particular Andreas Dreisiebner, whose strong commitment played a key role throughout. We deeply appreciate his dedication and his decision to personally travel to Ukraine for the official opening of the solar power plant in Rozhniativ.

Ukraine2Power is also grateful to our technical partner, NGO Ecoclub, for their valuable expertise and guidance.

Importantly, the municipality of Rozhniativ co-financed this project, a crucial contribution that enabled its successful implementation.

At the opening, we welcomed representatives from many neighboring communities, who showed strong interest in replicating solar solutions to strengthen their own energy security and reduce costs. They toured the hospital, reviewed the equipment, and had detailed discussions with the chief doctor and installer about energy usage, savings, and solar output.

To fully complete the project, we need five additional batteries (25.6 kWh) to ensure uninterrupted power, even during outages.

One milestone achieved, with more impactful projects to follow.
