Ukraine — Energy Infrastructure

OverWatts maps 214 energy assets in Ukraine across 12 layers — the 42nd-largest mapped base of 157 countries. They include 78 power plants, 36 coal / uranium mines and 25 pipelines. Operating generation capacity is 28.4 GW, led by nuclear at 49%. Refining capacity is about 150 kb/d.

The companies named on the most assets are Naftogaz (16), Gas Transmission System Operator of Ukraine (15) and PJSC Ukrhydroenergo (15), counting both ownership and operatorship. Half of Ukraine's mapped assets in service predate 1974 (median commissioning year of the 91 with a known date), 13 came online in the past decade and the oldest still listed is Dnipro-1 hydroelectric plant, dating from 1932. 23 projects are under construction or proposed, led by Khmelnitski nuclear power plant (4.7 GW).

Operating generation capacity by fuel

Utility-scale sites of 100 MW and above. Distributed generation — rooftop solar especially — is outside the tracker, so this runs below national installed capacity.
