Donbasenergo is one of the speakers at the ECOtransformation 2020 forum
16-11-2020

The green change stakeholders forum ECOtransformation 2020 will be held in the city of Kyiv on November 20. Leaders of the All-Ukrainian contest "Ecologist of the Year" are annually elected under this event. They drive Ukraine up to a new paradigm – green economy, green GDP, better life and environment standards.

Donbasenergo was put up for the category "Implementation of eco-technologies, eco-innovations and ecostartups" for the project on recycling and reuse of ash and slag wastes it completed.

A special dry plaster mix for internal and external construction is being produced on the site of Sloviansk TPP by the people of Donbasenergospetsremont, Donbasenergo's structural unit. It's perlizol which contains fly ash and is used for construction, renovation and repair of heat insulation of power facilities with surface temperature as high as 600 °С.

Use of ash and slag wastes as secondary raw materials is a key item on the power engineering agenda of these recent years. With this approach, the amount of coal combustion waste build-up will go down and, consequently, its harmful environmental effects will likewise decrease; natural materials that can replace ash will be used sparingly; and a solid income line for power plants will be created.

Being recognized by ECOtransformation 2020 is meant to support business community leaders who mold true national values like the respect for their homeland, care for preserving its wealth and welfare notwithstanding the economic troubles that they have to get over.

We are really excited about the contest outcomes.

For reference: As of November 01, 2020, 60.86% holder of PJSC Donbasenergo is ENERGOINVEST HOLDING Private Joint Stock Company, 25% + 1 share are held by the state represented by the State Property Fund of Ukraine.

PJSC Donbasenergo unites two power plants: Sloviansk and Starobeshevo TPP (the latter has been located in the territory beyond the control of Ukraine since 2014). Since March 2017, due to the loss of control over the temporarily occupied Donetsk region, annual performance indicators of assets located there are not included in Donbasenergo consolidated records of accounts.

The total installed capacity of Sloviansk TPP is 880 MW.
