Dolya Solar Energy builds a 4.5 MW solar power plant in Chornobay
When Dolya Solar Energy announced the completion of its 4.5 MW ground-mounted solar power plant in Chornobay, Cherkasy region, it was more than just another project on the map of Ukrainian renewables. It was a demonstration of speed, efficiency, and vision. From the first drawings to full commissioning, the entire cycle took only five months - an impressive timeline for a facility of this size.
The project was born from a simple idea: create a reliable, profit-generating asset for the client that could compete on international standards. In a country where the construction of solar power plants in Ukraine is becoming an increasingly attractive investment tool, Dolya Solar Energy showed how to turn potential into reality.
The scale behind the numbers
The Chornobay power plant combines engineering precision with sheer scale:
- Capacity: 4.5 MW of clean energy
- Solar panels installed: 7,168 modules
- Inverters: 28 high-performance units
- Equipment count: more than 7,200 components
- Construction footprint: approx. 20,000 m²
- Timeline: 5 months from start to finish
A facility of this capacity can provide electricity to thousands of households or fully meet the annual demand of a medium-sized manufacturing enterprise. But beyond figures, it represents an investment in independence, stability, and long-term value.
Building more than infrastructure
For the client, the request was clear: deliver an energy facility that combines profitability with reliability. Dolya Solar Energy responded by offering not just hardware but a strategic partnership. The approach was holistic - every stage, from soil testing to commissioning, was managed with precision.
Key stages of delivery included:
- Site preparation and assessment - analyzing local climate, solar irradiation, and grid connection points.
- Engineering and design - optimizing the panel layout to maximize sun exposure across the year.
- Equipment selection - choosing proven technology that balances performance and cost.
- Construction and installation - assembling durable mounting systems, modules, and inverters.
- Grid integration - connecting the plant to the regional power system with safety and efficiency testing.
- Commissioning and monitoring - ensuring the system met all performance benchmarks before launch.
This step-by-step execution ensured that the project was not just completed on time but also delivered predictable returns from day one of operation.
Why the project matters
The Chornobay solar plant is more than a set of panels in a field - it’s an investment platform. It brings measurable benefits to the client:
- Profitability: high yield supported by advanced technology.
- Low operating costs: automation and monitoring reduce the need for constant supervision.
- Longevity: designed for over 25 years of reliable service.
- Sustainability: cutting thousands of tons of CO₂ emissions annually.
By combining financial, technical, and environmental benefits, Dolya Solar Energy created a project that ticks every box for modern investors.
The advantage of a turnkey model
One of the strongest messages from this case is the efficiency of the turnkey solar power plant approach. In a market where clients often face fragmented offers - separate suppliers, installers, and consultants - Dolya Solar Energy provided a single, unified solution.
For the client, this meant:
- No hidden costs or surprises.
- A single team responsible for the outcome.
- Transparent communication throughout the project.
- Peace of mind that the facility would perform as promised.
The turnkey model has proven particularly attractive for investors who want clarity, speed, and accountability.
Investment perspective
The Ukrainian renewable energy market is entering a new stage of maturity. For investors, this means opportunities to secure assets with long-term cash flow and tangible impact.
The Chornobay case demonstrates several investment strengths:
- Predictable revenue backed by stable energy demand.
- Opportunities to sell electricity on competitive markets.
- Protection from volatility in traditional fuel prices.
- An asset that grows in value as energy transition accelerates.
For comparison, the return on investment for facilities of this scale can outperform many traditional industries, especially when coupled with rising global demand for clean energy.
Local and environmental impact
Beyond finances, the project has social and ecological dimensions. For the Chornobay community, the new solar plant enhances energy security, positions the region as a player in green technology, and creates jobs during construction and operation.
Environmentally, the plant offsets thousands of tons of carbon emissions each year - equivalent to planting tens of thousands of trees. This dual benefit of economic and ecological impact makes the project a flagship example of sustainable development in practice.
Dolya Solar Energy’s role
What sets Dolya Solar Energy apart is not just technical expertise, but the ability to see the bigger picture. The company positions itself as more than an EPC contractor; it is a partner for businesses and investors looking to enter or expand in the renewable energy sector.
