Norway’s Scatec started commercial operation of its largest solar power plant in Ukraine Progressovka (Mykolaiv region) with a capacity of 148 MW from July 2.
“We are pleased to complete our fourth project in Ukraine, supporting the country’s transition to green energy,” Scatec CEO Raymond Carlsen is quoted as saying in a post on the company’s website.
The Progressovka project envisages the production of 184 GWh of electricity per year, which will provide 76,000 households with power and will lead to a decrease in greenhouse gas emissions by over 70,000 tonnes, the company said.
The service life of the plant is over 30 years.
