The Kovel Porto Industrial Park (Kovel, Volyn Oblast) has signed a cooperation agreement with the Polish company Hanplast Sp. z o.o., which will serve as the general contractor and investor for the KovelEnergoPort project, with a total value of 42 million euros, according to the Kovel Porto Industrial Park.
The agreement was signed by the parties during the Ukraine Recovery Conference (URC 2026) in Gdańsk.
“We have signed an agreement with the Polish company Hanplast, the general contractor (EPC), which is also participating in the project as an investor with a 20% stake in the energy SPV,” the IP’s Facebook page states.
The project involves the construction of a 5.99 MW solar power plant, a 40 MWh energy storage system, and the generation of approximately 5,800 MWh of electricity per year. Solar panels will be installed on the roofs of industrial buildings.
The total budget for the logistics and energy segment is approximately 2 million euros.
It is noted that bringing in a contractor as a co-owner of the project is “a clear signal of the project’s banking attractiveness to international financial institutions.”
IP “Kovel Porto” adds that a memorandum was also signed in Gdańsk with UkraineInvest, paving the way for state support for the project under the significant investment regime.
For its part, the Polish company Hanplast announced on LinkedIn that the project will be co-financed by the Polish bank BGK, and Hanplast, as an investor, will receive a 20% stake in the project.
“The ‘Kovel Porto’ investment project is being built on one of the key transport routes connecting Ukraine with the EU. The development of such infrastructure opens up new opportunities for industry, logistics, and the further recovery of the Ukrainian economy. It is not often that we have the opportunity to participate in projects that contribute to Ukraine’s future. This makes us even more grateful for the trust placed in us,” Hanplast notes.
The investor reports that, as part of the project, the infrastructure supplies energy to the dry port, warehouses, and industrial park, and feeds surplus power into the grid.
“Kovel Porto” is a multimodal logistics and energy platform on a 25-hectare brownfield site, located 56 km by rail and 62 km by road from the EU border (the Yagodin-Dorohusk crossing).
The project has been designated as being of national importance and is integrated into the TEN-T core network.
The platform combines six areas of operation: a dry port and container terminal, a customs hub (Smart Customs Hub), warehouses and 3PL logistics, an industrial park, energy (KovelEnergoPort), and a data center.
The project operator is Kompressorna Technika LLC (the initiator of the “Kovel Porto” private enterprise), whose ultimate beneficiaries, according to YouControl, are businessman Ilya Koshkin (66.28%) and Angela Krapivianska (22.72%).
The Polish company Hanplast specializes, among other things, in the design and manufacture of molds, injection molding of plastics, as well as the production of photovoltaic modules and solutions.
The “Kovel Porto” industrial park was registered in July 2024, and in October of that same year, the park received 69.8 million UAH in government funding for the construction and modernization of its infrastructure.
