We &#8211; the housing association board &#8211; realised that if we had blackouts in summer, then in winter they will not be shorter but longer,&#8221; said Pyndyk, 49, who heads the association.<\/p>\n<p>The two previous winters of the war were already challenging, but Russia has now intensified its attacks on Ukraine&#8217;s energy infrastructure, with at least 11 major missile and drone strikes since March. About half of Ukraine&#8217;s generating capacity was knocked out and distribution networks were also damaged. In Kyiv, daily blackouts of eight hours are common and people plan their days around when power is scheduled to be available, including waiting in cafes for elevators to work if they live near the top of high-rise buildings.<\/p>\n<p>Some residents and businesses have rushed to install new generating capacity in an attempt to access energy independently of the central energy system. &#8221;Overall in Ukraine there is a steady trend towards energy independence, starting from small (consumer) clients and ending with business,&#8221; said Serhiy Kovalenko, CEO of Yasno, a leading energy supplier. Analysts said strategies included more electricity imports from Ukraine&#8217;s Western neighbours, purchases of generators and alternative energy sources including solar panels, batteries and small gas turbine generators.<\/p>\n<p>Yasno, which supplies electricity and gas to more than 3.5 million consumers and up to 100,000 businesses, provides options that include solar panels and accumulating batteries and inverters. &#8221;Demand is very high,&#8221; Kovalenko told Reuters. &#8221;This autumn we installed up to eight megawatts, next year we will install up to 30-35 megawatts.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.reuters.com\/world\/europe\/ukrainians-find-new-energy-sources-beat-blackouts-winter-arrives-2024-12-03\/\">Read more&gt;&gt;<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Source: <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.reuters.com\/world\/europe\/ukrainians-find-new-energy-sources-beat-blackouts-winter-arrives-2024-12-03\/\">Reuters<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>The post <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\/vau-viikkokatsaus\/ukrainians-find-new-energy-sources-to-beat-blackouts-as-winter-arrives\/\">Ukrainians find new energy sources to beat blackouts as winter arrives<\/a> appeared first on <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\">Vastuullisuusuutiset.fi<\/a>.<\/p>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[22],"tags":[7037,17163,7656,606,607,608],"class_list":["post-135812","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news","tag-find","tag-new-energy-sources","tag-ukrainians","tag-vau_viikkokatsaus","tag-vauen","tag-vaufien"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/135812","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=135812"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/135812\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=135812"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=135812"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=135812"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
