Dragon Capital plans to invest over $3 mln in energy-efficient solutions in 2026
Dragon Capital plans to invest over $3 million in developing energy-efficient solutions at its facilities in 2026, with a focus on solar power plants, Oleksandr Shmorhun, Director of Facility Management at Dragon Capital PM, told Interfax-Ukraine.
He emphasized that the company continues to increase equipment capacity, taking into account not only the upcoming heating season.
"All our shopping centers have gas heating, except for the Piramida Shopping Center, which is heated by electricity. During the power outages this winter, which lasted for about 300 hours in January, the temperature at Piramida dropped to 14 degrees Celsius on the coldest day of the month. We purchased additional electric generators, which are sufficient to provide all the heating for this combined heat and power plant," he said on the sidelines of UCSC TALKS in Kyiv on Wednesday.
According to him, alternative equipment is now needed in the summer as well: "We've installed additional generators at other retail and office properties. The new equipment makes it possible to ensure the cooling system operates comfortably for tenants and visitors."
