In Lutsk, an agreement was signed to start the construction of a new power and/or heat generation plant
In Lutsk, a tripartite agreement has been signed between SME "Lutskteplo," the Swedish fund "Swedfund International AB," and the Danish company "Ramboll Danmark A/S" to develop a feasibility study for the construction of a solid-fuel boiler house.
The agreement signing followed an online meeting involving Lutsk City Mayor Ihor Polishchuk, SME "Lutskteplo" Director Ivan Skorupskyi, and representatives from Swedfund International AB and Ramboll Danmark A/S.
Director Ivan Skorupskyi emphasized the project's environmental objective—decarbonizing the sector—a goal the enterprise has pursued since 2019.
Karin Kronhöffer, Director of Strategy and Communication at Swedfund, thanked the Lutsk City Council and SME "Lutskteplo" for the opportunity to initiate this significant initiative, which aims to enhance the city's thermal energy supply. Currently, their project team is involved in over 25 projects in Ukraine related to infrastructure, with plans to expand their presence. This project represents another step toward increasing energy efficiency, reducing environmental impacts, improving quality of life, and, more broadly, elevating Ukrainian infrastructure to European standards.
The construction of the solid-fuel boiler house is the first phase of a project to build a new electric and/or thermal generation plant. The second phase envisions constructing a new gas boiler house to ensure stable and reliable energy supply.
Developing the feasibility study is the initial step in implementing such projects according to international standards. Having an FS allows for investor search and serves as a foundation for creating project-estimate documentation and the project's successful realization.
