# How Ukrainian businesses are preparing for blackouts: D.Solutions assessment

![Ukrainian business preparing for power outages](https://xab.info/media/2026/10/13/kak-biznes-gotovitsya-k-otklyucheniyam-sveta-dsolutions/kak-biznes-gotovitsya-k-otklyucheniyam-sveta-dsolutions-1.webp)

## 🎯 Key Points

- A third of Ukrainian businesses are already systematically addressing energy supply issues.
- Small and large businesses face the most severe limitations when switching to backup power.
- Medium-sized businesses have the greatest opportunities for rapid energy adaptation.

Ukrainian business is demonstrating a high level of adaptation to the ongoing energy challenges of the current period. According to current market expert data, about a third of domestic companies have already built systematic protection against potential blackouts, turning energy independence issues into a priority for their operational activities. ### Background and current energy market realities

The situation in Ukraine's energy system remains challenging due to ongoing infrastructure damage and peak loads. In these conditions, entrepreneurs are forced to quickly restructure logistics, introduce alternative power sources, and look for effective financial tools to minimize losses from sudden power outages. ### Who finds it hardest to adapt

According to D.Solutions CEO Serhiy Kovalenko, the level of readiness directly depends on the scale of the enterprise. The greatest difficulties are faced by two categories: small businesses, which often only have access to basic generators due to limited resources, and large business giants, whose colossal energy consumption volumes are physically impossible to fully cover with autonomous units.

### Medium business opportunities

At the same time, the medium-sized business sector demonstrates the greatest flexibility. Having a sufficient safety margin and financial maneuverability, medium-sized companies are actively investing in solar power plants, energy storage devices, and modern consumption management systems.

### Противоречивые данные

It is worth noting existing discrepancies in assessments of business preparation rates across various analytical reports. While internal data from energy traders indicates a third of fully prepared companies, independent expert associations point out that the actual percentage of deep infrastructure modernization may be lower due to financing deficits and bureaucratic barriers when connecting green generation.

### Consequences and prospects

The implementation of technological solutions, such as the launch of the YASNO Power platform with the "Autopilot" feature, helps not only maintain the autonomy of domestic and commercial batteries but also optimize costs. In the long term, energy efficiency will become the main competitive advantage in the Ukrainian market.
