In-House Power Generation for Businesses: OTP BANK Offers a Comprehensive Approach to Financing Energy Projects
Energy independence has become a prerequisite for the stable operation of businesses in Ukraine. To facilitate companies’ transition to in-house power generation, JSC “OTP BANK” has gone beyond traditional investment lending and now offers a comprehensive approach: expert advisory, selection of optimal financing parameters, engagement of trusted equipment suppliers, and turnkey project implementation.
“It is crucial for companies not only to secure financing but also to have a clear and structured implementation model for energy projects. In this process, OTP BANK acts as a reliable partner, helping businesses implement energy initiatives efficiently and with minimal risk — by engaging trusted partners, selecting modern technologies, and applying flexible financial approaches. Thanks to prompt decision-making, the Bank enables a swift transition from planning to execution of energy programs,” said Iryna Kabantseva, Head of Alternative Sales Channels Projects and Programs at OTP BANK, speaking at the international forum Agro Ukraine Week 2026.
Key financing terms include maturities of up to 7 years with an initial contribution starting from 15%. The purchased equipment serves as collateral, with no need for additional security. In addition, the Bank offers the option to combine financing with the state program “Affordable Loans 5–7–9%,” implemented by the Government at the initiative of the President of Ukraine through the National Development Institution.
An additional advantage is OTP BANK’s cooperation with international partners, including the EBRD, which allows clients to receive compensation of up to 30% of the project cost. The highest level of support is available to veteran-owned businesses, relocated companies, and those that have suffered losses.
Investments in energy equipment provide a rapid economic effect: the estimated payback period may be 2–3 years, after which companies can significantly reduce electricity costs.
“In-house generation not only enables businesses to achieve energy independence but also opens new growth opportunities. Once their own needs are covered, companies can scale capacity and consider electricity generation as an additional source of income,” Ms. Kabantseva added.
OTP BANK is ready to support the implementation of both large-scale energy initiatives and projects of small, medium, and micro-sized businesses. Fast-track solutions are also available for the agricultural sector. Applications can be submitted via the Bank’s website, after which a representative will contact the client to clarify the details.
As a reminder, OTP BANK was an official partner of the international forum Agro Ukraine Week 2026, held on 17–19 June at the Parkovy Convention and Exhibition Center in Kyiv, bringing together representatives of agribusiness, investors, international partners, and technology companies to discuss industry development.
