Background

In May 2024, it was announced that Kyiv was planning to overhaul its heating and energy supply system by building six mini-CHPs in the capital. This initiative will require up to EUR 1.2 billion and 12–15 years to complete. However, the first batch of equipment was expected to be installed by the end of 2024. This initiative will enable creation of "energy islands" in the capital — zones that will always have heat, electricity, and water. The corresponding decision was approved by the Kyiv City Council at a session held in May 2024.[3]

In November 2024, Kyiv installed its first cogeneration gas-piston unit with a capacity of 1.5 MW. The equipment was installed with the support of USAID and the Energy Security Project at one of the city's critical infrastructure facilities. Kyiv has requested an additional 15 cogeneration units, which are expected to arrive in batches over the next year. The goal is to achieve an additional total capacity of approximately 170 MW within a year.[4] Thus, mini-CHPs 1, 2 , 3 and 4 are planned be completed by 2025.
