General information

Description of the project

The project is aimed at increasing the resilience of Ukraine's power system against the backdrop of ongoing military attacks, ensuring uninterrupted energy supply to the population and enterprises.

The project involves the reconstruction and automation of the 330 kV substation "Brovarska", the 330 kV substation "Cherkaska" and the 330 kV substation "Zhytomyrska", which are currently only partially reconstructed, as well as the new construction of the 330 kV substation "Zakhidna", where work was frozen at the stage of installing the pile foundation with certain equipment supplied by the contractor. The substations of NPP "Ukrenergo" are included in the Project provide power supply to administrative centers (Kyiv, Brovary, Boryspil, Zhytomyr, Cherkasy) and large industrial enterprises in these regions, as well as related to the provision of intersystem transit connections of the NPC "Ukrenergo" power grid.  

The purpose of the project

Main goal:

Increasing compliance with modern standards

Secondary goal:

Description of the purpose of the project and ways to achieve it

The project's goal is to increase the stability of Ukraine's electricity transmission system by replacing outdated primary equipment at Ukrenergo NPC substations with the transition to modern switchgear schemes and the installation of an automated process control system, as well as implementing protection of the specified equipment from air attacks in order to reduce the risks of emergency situations in the Unified Power System of Ukraine.

Problems and solutions resulting from project implementation

The results expected to be achieved through the implementation of the Project: 1) improving the ability of the power system to quickly restore operation after attacks and emergencies; 2) more efficient use of energy capacity, increased transmission and reduction of electricity losses, increased level of operational control over the state of the network; 3) ensuring reliable energy supply to consumers.
