PILOT PROJECT “UKRAINE HYDROGEN VALLEY” DEVELOPMENT OF A HYBRID PARK OF WIND & SOLAR POWER PLANTS IN THE WATER AREA OF THE KAKHOV RESERVOIR ( DNIPRO RIVER) WITH SUBSEQUENT CONVERSION OF ENERGY INTO "GREEN" HYDROGEN ("GREEN" AMMONIA) THE MAIN DIRECTIONS OF DEVELOPMENT OF THE HYDROGEN ECONOMY OF UKRAINE According to Ursula von der Leyen, European agriculture plans to switch 50% to organic products by 2030. This area opens up great potential for Ukraine, which is able to produce The Black Sea Hydrogen Valley project represents "green ammonia" from green the renewable energy potential of the south of hydrogen, which is needed for organic agriculture in Europe and the world. Ukraine, which, together with the gas transportation infrastructure, will ensure the economically successful export of «green» hydrogen to the European Union and Germany in 2022 - 2050.
The surplus of green energy has the potential to support the EU in achieving the desired climate targets already this decade. Building a thriving energy partnership with the EU creates the economic foundation for the subsequent restructuring of Ukraine's economy in the field of fossil resources and the transition to a green, carbon-free economy. Kakhovskoe reservoir is located in the lower reaches of the Dnieper River, on the territory of three regions: Kherson, Zaporozhye and Dnipropetrovsk. It was put into operation in 1956.
Data from Kakhovsky reservoir: • area 2150 km2 • gross volume 18.18 km3 • depth: average 8.4 m, maximum 32 m, shallow waters - 5% of the area • length 242 km, middle part – lake-alike, width up to 23 km • water level fluctuations - up to 3.3 m (additional studies will be conducted under the Project) • low water flow rate current velocity (from 0.01 - 0.08 m/s to 0.6 - 2.0 m/s depending on the region)
The water surface area of 210 sq. km planned for development is highlighted on the map. The site is not crossed by navigable fairways, infrastructure facilities will cool down, and the depth of the bottom is 2 - 3 m. The site covers 9.8% of the total area of the reservoir. GREEN ENERGY CIRCLE

Currently, the so-called Grand The global transition to a carbon- Transition is underway in the free energy is part of a much world from energy based on the broader transition to a carbon- use of fossil products to renewable free economy. energy using the energy of the sun, wind and water.
The commitment of the Ukrainian leadership to support fossil energy can lead to our country falling out of the global Grand Transition trend, difficulty in accessing financial resources and an even greater lag of the economy from the European one. THE CALCULATION MODEL INCLUDES THE FOLLOWING EXTREME LIMITS OF OPERATION OF POWER GENERATION FACILITIES:

The diagram clearly shows that even with such critical conditions the Ukrainian energy sector, based on fossil energy resources, is entering a period of deep crisis (already from the 30s). And by 2037 it practically terminate operation.
NUCLEAR POWER PLANT THERMAL POWER PLANT HYDRO TOTAL DROP OUT POWER (INSTALLED CAPACITY) To avoid an energy collapse, today it is necessary to start building a power industry that is independent of fossil sources. These are renewable energy sources (wind power plants, solar power plants, hydro, biogas) using modern hydrogen technologies that ensure uninterrupted stable supply of electricity and heat to industrial facilities and households.

For the stable and uninterrupted functioning of the power system, additional investments will be required in the processing of a part of the electricity from renewable energy sources into hydrogen for balancing.
In this model, it is assumed that 15% of all electricity goes to balancing. Specific Electrolysis Consumption - 55 kW * h / kg H2, Electrolysis Efficiency - 64%, Electrolyser’s CAPEX = 900 USD/kg.
Such significant funds for the modernization of the energy system of Ukraine can be attracted solely following the current trend of carbon-free transit.
But, taking into account the stable long-term need for the import of "green" hydrogen, declared by the EU and, especially, Germany, the potential of Ukraine for the production and export of "green" hydrogen and ammonia should be assessed.
