Two brothers from Kyiv, Oleksiy and Andriy Kovalenko, have developed and received a patent for an innovative model of alternative power supply.
This is reported by the Ukrainian Energy portal.
Their development is called EnergoBrat. It is based on the use of renewable energy sources (RES) and modern energy storage technologies. This allows for a continuous supply of electricity even in remote areas.
The brothers say they came up with the idea during one of the many power outages in the capital. They decided to create a system that would allow them to be independent of traditional energy sources.
“EnergoBrat consists of several modules:
- solar panels;
- wind generators;
- energy storage systems based on lithium-ion batteries.

The system is easy to install. It can be used in both private homes and commercial facilities.
Thanks to the support of local entrepreneurs and research institutes, the brothers were able to bring their development to a level suitable for mass production. Now they are actively looking for investors to implement their project.
“We believe that our technology can change the energy landscape of Ukraine and make it more independent from external factors,” says Andriy.
The Kovalenko brothers have already received several offers of cooperation with international companies. Their project was also awarded a national innovation award.
Recently, EcoPolitics talked about 8 domestic eco-startups that Ukraine presented at the COP29.
