On 25 March 2025, a meeting of the UWEA Board took place, following which a decision was made to introduce a number of amendments to the Association’s Statute. One of the key changes is the expansion of UWEA’s scope of activity to the distributed generation sector, in particular to energy storage facilities (systems).
This decision is driven by the dynamic development of the energy storage market in Ukraine and the active participation of UWEA member companies in implementing projects that include energy storage elements. In modern realities, such solutions are becoming an integral part of the new energy architecture — decentralised, sustainable and flexible.
The expansion of UWEA’s mandate will make it possible to:
- provide professional support to participants in the energy storage segment;
- represent their interests in dialogue with state bodies, the Regulator and international partners;
- contribute to the formation of market conditions for the integration of energy storage into the overall power system;
- attract investment and expertise for the development of decentralised generation.
“We see how rapidly Ukraine’s energy landscape is changing. Wind energy, as a key segment of renewable generation, is increasingly being integrated with energy storage solutions. This is not only a technological necessity, but also a strategic step to increase the country’s energy security. UWEA is adapting to the new challenges and is ready to professionally support the participants of this promising market”, – UWEA Board Chairman Andriy Konechenkov.
UWEA will continue to remain a platform for uniting the leading players of the market and for the development of sustainable energy in Ukraine.
