Slavutich Mayor Yuri Fomichev in a recent interview spoke about plans to completely translate city on renewable energy sources. Officials have already developed a corresponding plan called “Power Slavutich”.
“Power Slavutich” involves the transition to 100% renewable energy sources. They intend to officially approve this plan in the near future. Yuri Fomichev said that he considers the plan realistic, and Slavutich is “the only city in Ukraine that is ready to introduce such changes.” He added that for Slavutich, as a “city of nuclear scientists,” energy efficiency is a priority area.
Slavutich has a relatively small budget for development. But city authorities are actively developing international cooperation. For example, in 2023 the city budget was 300 million UAH, and thanks to international projects another 417 million UAH were attracted.
Slavutich has a project to install a mini-CHP that will run on wood waste. Its cost is over €6 million. Such a thermal power plant could be used to generate electricity for critical infrastructure in the event of a complete blackout, such as the one the city experienced at the very beginning of a full-scale Russian invasion. In March 2022, Slavutich remained completely without electricity for 6 days. Back then people cooked food in their yards. Currently, Slavutich is completely dependent on gas, so city authorities are looking for alternative ways to provide electricity.
