Ukraine to consider Czech Republic’s experience of energy system decentralization

The relevant statement was made by Ukrainian Energy Deputy Minister Yaroslav Demchenkov during a meeting with Ambassador-at-Large for Energy Security at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Czech Republic Václav Bartuška and Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary of the Czech Republic to Ukraine Radek Matula, an Ukrinform correspondent reports, referring to the Ukrainian Energy Ministry.

“The decentralized energy system is a matter of our security. In the face of the constant threat from Russia, we must ensure that critical infrastructure continues to operate even in case of system failures and that Ukrainians are provided with electricity. Distributed generation is the one that uses renewable energy sources, and we pay a lot of attention to promoting the development of green energy,” Demchenkov told.

In his words, Ukraine invited the Czech side to consider the possibility of implementing a similar project in one of Ukrainian regions in cooperation with an international organization.

A reminder that the Ukrainian Energy Ministry and the Ukrainian World Congress (UWC) signed a memorandum of understanding to coordinate efforts in providing support for Ukraine’s energy system and its further development.
