The power station is expected to attain full capacity with the commissioning of the remaining three pump-turbine units by 2028. The Dniester pumped-storage hydroelectric facility is located approximately 20km away from the Sokyryany city, in the Chrnivtsi province of Ukraine.
The project site lies on the right bank of the middle section of the Dniester River, near Ukraine’s border with Moldova. The Dniester pumped-storage facility will comprise a total of seven units for a total power output of 2,268MW.
The Dniester power project is a 2.2GW pumped-storage power plant (PSPP) under construction in the Chrnivtsi province of Ukraine.
Ukrhydroenergo is developing the pumped storage power generation facility through a consortium, namely Research Production Association (RPA) Ukrgidroenergobud that includes Dnipro-Spetsgidroenergomontazhe, Enpaselectro, Kyivmetrobud, SHDSU, and Intergidrobud. The Dniester pumped-storage power project is located in the Chrnivtsi Province of Ukraine.
