Kyiv Polytechnic discusses cooperation in energy with Solarspar, Ukraine2Power
Andreas Dreisiebner, member of the board of directors at Solarspar, the Swiss Solar Energy Association, together with representatives of the NGO Ukraine2Power visited the Igor Sikorsky Kyiv Polytechnic Institute to discuss prospects for further cooperation in the energy sector.
Discussions focused on:
- International exchange of knowledge and innovations in energy, particularly in the operation of conventional and vertical solar power plants;
- Expansion of Kyiv Polytechnic’s cooperation in power engineering with Swiss universities;
- Organisation of trips to introduce a Kyiv Polytechnic delegation to Solarspar’s activities;
- Collaborative research and educational initiatives.
During the visit, the guests made a tour of one of the solar power plants at the university, which ensures the uninterrupted operation of the Centre for Collective Use of Scientific Equipment “Materials Science of Refractory Compounds and Composites,” the solar energy laboratory, and the wind energy lecture hall.
There are new steps and challenges ahead for the partners in the realm of green energy, energy efficiency, and rebuilding Ukraine’s energy system.
Solarspar, a member of the Climate Alliance Switzerland, has long been active in the renewable energy sector, supporting projects on energy, climate action, and other related areas.
Ukraine2Power is a Ukrainian non-profit organization founded in response to Russian attacks on Ukraine’s energy system.
