The GEF SGP Project Provided Luhansk Region Households with Solid Fuel Boilers

In the course of the project 15 solid fuel boilers were purchased and passed to the household owners, who are hosting IDPs in Bilovodsk, Luhask region. The draft project to install the facilities was developed and several households were connected to the heating system already.

These solid fuel boilers are constructed to operate on various types of fuel: coal, wood, biomass briquettes, wood waste, pellets from agricultural waste etc. Implementation of alternative heating sources clearly demonstrates their benefits to the owners and visitors of households, as well as to the local community. The project shows that alternative types of fuel are not only cheaper than traditional ones, but also contribute to improvement of the environment.
