The Solar Energy Association of Ukraine invites you to an open meeting of the Committee on Energy Storage Systems (BESS) on the topic: “Via negativa: The ‘yes’ that emerged through ‘no’ for BESS projects”.
- Date: November 4, 2025
- Time: 15:00 (Kyiv time)
- Format: Online (Zoom)
Speaker: Vadym Utkin, Advisor to the CEO of DTEK Renewables
Moderator: Serhii Ruchko, Head of the SEAU Committee on BESS
The via negativa approach seeks truth not by adding, but by removing. During the meeting, we’ll focus on what definitely doesn’t work when it comes to building a BESS business case that’s solid enough for the boardroom discussion:
- Market: Hedging volatility or believing in The Great Decoupling?
- AC/DC – “Flick of the Switch”: Which co-location connection configuration should not be chosen?
- IRR = (AR + RTE + PG + LD) × Alpha – CAPEX: What lies behind the return-on-investment formula in the Ukrainian reality?
The meeting will be valuable for investors, developers, technical experts, and market operators who wish to gain deeper insight into the factors influencing project payback periods and discuss ways to enhance the performance of BESS in Ukraine.
