Apartment Buildings in Brovary Will Receive Backup Power

In Brovary, a project called the “Energy-Independent Neighborhood” will be implemented to create a local system of backup power for infrastructure.

This was learned by KV from a message by the Brovary mayor Ihor Sapozhko on Telegram.

“We are installing such storage units across the territory of our community. Now we are considering the possibility of connecting four buildings to power the elevators and common-area lighting. […] We are installing equipment that will directly provide uninterrupted power to the elevator system for two weeks,” the city leader noted.

As part of the project, solar stations will be installed on rooftops, battery storage units, and charging infrastructure. On the first floors of the buildings, outlets for charging gadgets will be arranged. At residents’ request, intercoms will also be powered so that apartment doors remain locked during power outages. Similar equipment is being installed at three more locations, which will allow connecting an additional four to five residential buildings to backup power.

As a reminder, previously the Brovary community discussed potential cooperation with the Principality of Liechtenstein. Among the potential areas of partnership are humanitarian aid, infrastructure restoration, and the installation of heat pumps at municipal facilities.
