Сучасний стан розвитку відновлювальної енергетики в Україні та можливі рішення

Purpose. To examine the current state of development and implementation of renewable energy sources in Ukraine and to investigate the prospects for their utilization. Design / Method / Approach. The study analyzes the current state and prospects of renewable energy sources use worldwide and in Ukraine, presents the inventory and current status of wind power plants in Ukraine considering the impact of military actions. The most efficient wind energy installations for mining regions are identified, along with their advantages and disadvantages. Findings. The prospects for the use of wind energy installations to ensure the country’s energy security are established; it is emphasized that wind power plants (WPPs) represent one of the most competitive electricity generation technologies, with economic and ecological benefits. Theoretical Implications. The advantages of WPPs, conditions for their application, and promising directions for their use, including the possibility of placement on technogenically disturbed lands, are defined. Practical Implications. The existing WPPs in Ukraine, their current status, and the prospects for renewable energy development globally and nationally to ensure energy independence and security are analyzed. Originality / Value. The article provides original data on the current global status of renewable energy; it analyzes the relevance of renewable energy use during wartime and post-war periods for achieving energy independence through the deployment of WPPs on technogenically disturbed lands in mining regions. Research Limitations / Future Research. Further studies will focus on the potential use of wind energy installations with vertical axis rotation in mining regions on technogenically disturbed lands.
