A new 120 kW photovoltaic system now covers two wards and the city polyclinic during daytime, boosting energy security and reducing municipal costs.
According to the Vinnytsia Oblast Council.
In the Kalynivska district of Vinnytsia region, Kalynivska Central District Hospital joined the ‘Ray of Hope’ initiative, of which the European Commission is a co-initiator. According to the Vinnytsia Regional Council, the project implementation enabled the installation of a modern solar power plant on the hospital’s grounds.
“The Kalynivska Central District Hospital of the Kalynivska urban territorial community participated in the ‘Ray of Hope’ project. As part of this initiative, a modern solar power plant was built on the roofs of three medical buildings. The hospital installed solar panels with a capacity of 120 kW.”

Thanks to the new solar power plant, during daytime hours two hospital buildings and the city polyclinic fully switch to using green energy. This not only increases their energy independence but also helps save the municipal budget funds.
The Vinnytsia Regional Council noted that the installed solar power system is equipped with reliable sources of uninterrupted power supply. The new system enables the buildings to be fully powered and guarantees uninterrupted operation of critically important medical equipment.
According to the Vinnytsia Regional Council, within the ‘Ray of Hope’ program, from January to April 2026 hospitals commissioned solar panels with a total capacity of 590 kW.
The final step of the initiative was the introduction of modern energy-consumption calculations in the region’s medical facilities, which help reduce the community budget expenditures and improve the energy efficiency of Vinnytsia’s healthcare system.
This step strengthens energy independence for Vinnytsia’s medical facilities and supports sustained savings in local budgets.
