Audio interview with Volodymyr Omelchenko (mp3)
Construction of wind power plants is real and possible now. Ukrainian energy workers demonstrate technology, fearlessness, and optimism. Construction of the Tiligul wind power plant in Mykolayiv region took place under shelling. The plant itself is not far from the front line. Therefore, it is quite dangerous there. This wind power plant is very important for Ukraine, because it will significantly improve the energy balance at critical moments of electricity shortage. In addition, it is a symbol of invincibility and optimism of our country.
The initiative is great. Working directly with international investors reduces the level of bureaucracy. I think this way is very correct. This project is attractive for investors, and of course for us. It once again confirms that investments today are generally ready to go to the development of renewable energy sources — not thermal or nuclear generation but green generation. It may include solar panels, biofuels, windmills, energy storage systems, modules combining several sources. I think that different investors will offer different solutions.
Local authorities will be able to join forces to attract foreign investment in the development of renewable energy sources. Decentralization is very useful here. Communities will be able to raise investments for themselves.
