Pivdenny Among the Top 20 Ukrainian Companies Building Energy Independence

28.05.2025

Pivdenny Bank was included in the list of top 20 Ukrainian companies, which invest in energy autonomy, build their own generation, and develop the energy market, according to the Delo.ua publication.

Over the past three years, Pivdenny Bank has made a comprehensive transition to energy-saving technologies, which has significantly reduced electricity consumption and increased the level of environmental responsibility.

An important achievement in the field of energy independence was the installation of two solar power plants with a total capacity of 185 thousand kWh per year. They not only reduce electricity costs, but also contribute to the reduction of carbon dioxide emissions, which is in line with the bank’s environmental strategy.

In addition, Pivdenny has provided all its branches with backup power sources. This allows providing financial services to customers without interruption even during long-term power outages. Thanks to this, the bank maintains a high level of operational stability and reliability, which is critically important for financial institutions.

In the near future, Pivdenny plans to expand its energy independence by investing in the installation of modern inverter uninterruptible power supplies. These systems will not only ensure autonomous operation during blackouts, but also effectively store energy for later use during peak load times on the power grid.

As part of the modernization programme, the bank also plans to gradually replace outdated generator equipment with newer models with improved economic performance. This will reduce fuel and maintenance costs, as well as increase the overall efficiency of backup power.

The bank pays special attention to improving the climatic conditions in its data centres - experts are considering the possibility of installing the latest air conditioning systems that will maintain an optimal microclimate with minimal electricity consumption. Pivdenny will place special emphasis on the use of deep heat recovery technologies, which will allow the reuse of waste energy for heating other bank premises.
