Figures from the Solar Energy Association of Ukraine (SEAU) earlier this year showed that the country added around 850MW of solar PV capacity in 2024, the majority of which came from self-consumption systems installed by businesses. It's “become a trend”, Semenyshyn says.

Power banks over 160Wh are prohibited on passenger flights. Power banks must be in carry-on bags, not checked luggage. Make sure the power bank is properly labeled with its capacity. These rules ensure safety and battery management during air travel. Now, let's explore each point in detail.
To safely bring a power bank on a plane, follow airline regulations and safety measures. These guidelines help prevent fire hazards and ensure compliance with transportation laws. Verify battery capacity (watt-hour limit). Pack power banks in carry-on luggage. Avoid damaged or malfunctioning units. Keep devices accessible for inspection.
There are two main rules about flying with power banks, and they've been in place for several years now: You must have power banks in your carry-on. They cannot be in checked luggage that goes into the hold Power banks must not exceed 100 watt-hours (Wh). That equates to 27,000 milliamp-hours (mAh).
