Munich, Germany, 07/04/2025
GoodWe, a leading inverter manufacturer and smart energy solution provider, has partnered with the non-profit association we@voltalia to provide a solar power storage system to the Bobryk Gymnasium of Velyka Dymerka Village Council in Ukraine, participating in the #100SolarSchools Project initiated and coordinated by Energy Act Foundation. The Bobryk Gymnasium in the Kyiv region marks the eleventh school to benefit from this initiative that aims to secure energy supply for students during power outages. The program to guarantee energy independence for schools was initiated by the Energy Act for Ukraine Foundation, a charity that is working with international corporations, NGO’s and authorities. The system at the Bobryk Gymnasium was installed in collaboration with multiple partners and inaugurated in late January 2025.
The installation at the school is comprised of 42.3 kWp of solar photovoltaic (PV) modules, combined with GoodWe ET Series hybrid inverters and Lynx F Series batteries with 29.7 kWh of storage capacity. The system, integrated with GoodWe's SEMS monitoring platform, provides up to 4 hours of backup power during blackouts, ensuring a continuous learning environment for students without disruption. Bobryk Gymnasium is expected to save up to EUR 6000 annually on electricity costs, freeing up funds for other essential needs. Over the next 25 years, the system will reduce CO2 emissions by an estimated 635 tons, supporting Ukraine’s environmental goals.
