Risen Energy and Ascania Energy sign MoUs for up to 100 MW solar and 200 MWh BESS in Ukraine
Last editorial update:
Chinese manufacturer Risen Energy and Ukrainian firm Ascania Energy signed two strategic MoUs covering cooperation on projects of up to 100 MW of solar PV capacity and 200 MWh of utility-scale battery energy storage. Risen will supply PV modules and BESS; Ascania will lead local development and EPC. The partnership targets decentralised, flexible solutions to strengthen power reliability amid wartime grid constraints. Risen has previously supplied modules to 12 Ukrainian solar projects including the 323 MW Pokrovskaya plant.
Why it matters
Directly signals continued international equipment supply and local developer appetite for mid-scale solar-plus-storage hybrids precisely in the 5-100 MW origination window. Supports investor decision-making by confirming active pipeline activity, technology availability (including liquid-cooled eTron BESS) and the strategic priority of distributed renewables and flexibility for Ukrainian energy security.
