Ukraine Will get Help From CleanTechnica — How About Some Extra?

Ukraine, regardless of some hardcore propaganda on the contrary, remains to be in want of our assist. How that’s turning right into a political splitting level is actually shocking to me, even in spite of everything we’ve been by way of within the US since 2015 (or 2008). However it reveals how efficient Putin’s and his allies’ low-cost data warfare has turn into. Sadly for Ukrainians, it’s not simply an data battle — they’re always being invaded, having their properties and faculties and energy crops and cities blown up, and struggling by way of a lot worse issues we gained’t even speak about right here. Because of this, Ukraine wants our assist with unbiased, distributed, self-sufficient, renewable power — in addition to different types of assist. To maintain the lights on, or put them again on, Ukraine wants photo voltaic and wind energy as urgently as attainable.

I’ve revealed a couple of appeals for renewable power donations for Ukraine up to now few months. The excellent news is: that made a distinction. “I wish to thanks very a lot, additionally on behalf of our pals in Ukraine, for publishing our name for donations in your web site,” mentioned Stefan Gsänger, Secretary Common of the World Wind Vitality Affiliation. “Following the publication, we’ve seen a considerable improve in donations which permits us to ship much more gear to Ukraine.”

Stefan additionally famous among the goodness that funding has gone towards. “Simply final week, we’ve handed over two photo voltaic trailers to hospitals in Irpin. Even the Ukrainian TV reported about this. You discover hyperlinks to the reviews, photos, and many others. on our web site.” (See the image on the high.)

“Additional gear will likely be despatched within the coming weeks,” he provides.

It’s gratifying to see our contributions making a distinction. Even when small within the grand scheme of issues, the mixed result’s huge for some folks. Can we do extra with a 3rd spherical of efforts? Might we fund twice as a lot solar energy for Ukraine?

Let’s give it a whirl. As famous earlier than:

You’ll be able to attain out to WWEA by way of their contact kind or e mail — [email protected] — to debate donations, or you may merely donate cash by way of PayPal or bank card and it will likely be used to buy and donate such clear power gear.
