In addition, the installed power plants will help reduce CO₂ emissions by almost 98 tonnes per year. Even in difficult times of war, Mykolaiv cares about the environment, because it is the future of our citizens. I am grateful to our partners from «EcoClub» for supporting Mykolaiv in the development of renewable energy,» said Oleksandr Sienkevych.
