In the Dnipropetrovsk region, the implementation of an investment project for the construction of a solar electric plant continues. The project has been supported by the Dnipropetrovsk Investment Agency (DIA) since 2013. The project is being implemented by the Czech company ECO TECH UKRAINE, which has been operating in the solar energy market since 2004. In 2014, a foreign investor founded ECO TECH Shyroke Ltd., which is a construction customer.

The solar electric plant is being built on a land plot of 21.6 hectares in the village of Shestyrnia (Shyroke district). 21774 solar photovoltaic (PV) modules and other related equipment with a total capacity of 6.97 MW will be installed.

The project was made possible by raising EBRD loans in the amount € 5.6 mln.
