Educational institutions in Odesa are gaining new opportunities with alternative energy sources. Since the full-scale invasion of Ukraine by Russia in 2022, part of the energy infrastructure has been damaged, leaving many public and communal services without stable electricity.

During blackouts, solar power systems have become a crucial solution for ensuring continuous and stable energy supply.

With the support of the Lithuanian company UAB Okata, a project to install solar power systems is being implemented in Odesa's lyceums No. 86, 81, 9, 62, 92 and in the kindergarten “Yasla-sadok” No. 195.

This project provides educational institutions with the ability to be energy independent and continue educational processes even during electricity outages.

Moreover, utilizing solar energy will significantly reduce the budget expenditures on energy resources.

In the face of constant attacks on the energy system, the installation of solar power systems is a vital step towards embracing clean energy sources.

In the Odesa region, UAB Okata is actively implementing a project for installing solar power systems, which is foundational for energy independence and a safer future. The project commenced in August 2023 after signing an agreement with the Lithuanian Ministry of Environment's Agency for Environmental Projects. The Honorary Consulate of Lithuania in Odesa coordinates the project.
