On 15 March 2021, a Memorandum of Partnership and Cooperation between the Ukrainian Wind Energy Association and Professional Association of Ecologists of Ukraine (PAEU) was signed by Andriy Konechenkov, Chairman of the UWEA Board, and Liudmyla Tsyganok, President of the PAEU to consolidate efforts of both organisations in promoting renewable energy and improving environment in Ukraine through the balanced development of the Ukrainian energy system.
Andriy Konechenkov, Chairman of the UWEA Board commented: “We are honoured to sign a Memorandum with the Professional Association of Ecologists of Ukraine, which works with dedication for greening the economy and all spheres of economic activity in Ukraine. As you know, wind energy reduces greenhouse gas emissions, contributes greatly to combating climate change and ensures sustainable development of the country. Therefore, combination of efforts, knowledge and experience of our experts and each other’s support will accelerate the green energy transition in Ukraine.”
“The Professional Association of Ecologists of Ukraine has consistently defended the right of everyone to sustainable development. We are confident that the Ukraine’s transition to RES is inevitable. It’s obvious that the European Green Deal will motivate our country to accelerate greening the national power system and our role is to provide methodological, informational and expert support to enterprises. Wind is not only environmentally friendly energy source; wind could bring energy independence to the country. And last but not least, wind is one of the cheapest energy sources,” stressed Liudmyla Tsyganok, President of the PAEU.
