In a report published on 31 October 2026, the South Ukrainian City Council approved a grant agreement with NEFCO covering 5.2 million euros for sewer-system repairs in Pivdennoukrainsk, including reconstruction of two sewage pumping stations and a pressure main Інтент.
The project is significant to utility operators because it combines wet-well and pumping-station rehabilitation, conveyance work and alternative power for remote facilities rather than adding treatment capacity, based on the scope described by Інтент.
Grant agreement approved for pumping-station reconstruction
Council members adopted the resolution approving the NEFCO grant agreement during a council session, according to a report published on 31 October 2026 Інтент. The agreement is worth 5.2 million euros and will fund reconstruction of two sewage pumping stations and a pressure main Інтент.
The work covers the KNS-2 and KNS-3 sewage pumping stations and the pressure collector carrying domestic sewage from KNS-3 to the Tashlyk Reservoir along the NK-1–NK-2 section Інтент.
Tetyana Tatsienko, head of the City Council’s Economic Development Department, said: “The total cost of the work is 5 million 840 thousand euros,” with 5 million 255 thousand euros provided by NEFCO and 585 thousand euros to come from the municipal community Інтент.
The reconstruction is also expected to include solar panels and batteries intended to power the facilities using alternative energy sources Інтент.
Procurement preparation moves into implementation
NEFCO’s investment committee, supported by the Danish government, had approved funding for the project by June, and council members authorized signature of the grant agreement on 3 July Інтент. At that July vote, 24 council members supported the decision Інтент.
In September, the city council, utility officials and experts discussed preparation and implementation, procurement and the scope of work Інтент. The source did not report an award date, construction start date or completion schedule for the works Інтент.
Specification Read
The reported scale is infrastructure rehabilitation rather than a disclosed treatment-plant capacity: the source identifies two sewage pumping stations and a pressure sewer main, but does not report design flow in cubic metres per day, served population, inlet BOD or COD, or treatment capacity Інтент. That means a hydraulic conversion to cubic metres per day or population equivalent cannot be calculated from the information available.
A municipal treatment train commonly separates screening, primary treatment, biological treatment and tertiary treatment or disinfection, with DAF or ZLD added where solids removal or liquid-residue management is required. This project bears directly on the collection and transfer stage: pumping stations, their power supply and a pressure sewer main that moves domestic sewage toward the Tashlyk Reservoir Інтент. Buyers evaluating adjacent treatment and pumping needs can use the Municipal hub or review Integrated Sewage Treatment.
If your plant looks like a two-pumping-station rehabilitation with a pressure sewer main, measurable flow in cubic metres per day, specified BOD or COD, municipal wastewater service and pressure to maintain uninterrupted transfer, this is what it means for you: the enquiry should address station rehabilitation, duty/standby pumping, surge and discharge control, remote-power requirements and integration with the downstream treatment process. For broader process context, Water Purification is the relevant product hub.
FAQ
What is the approved project value and funding split?
The South Ukrainian City Council approved a NEFCO grant agreement worth 5.2 million euros for reconstruction of two sewage pumping stations and a pressure main in Pivdennoukrainsk Інтент. The stated total work cost is 5 million 840 thousand euros, comprising 5 million 255 thousand euros from NEFCO and 585 thousand euros from the municipal community Інтент.
Which facilities are included in the works?
The project covers reconstruction of the KNS-2 and KNS-3 sewage pumping stations and the pressure collector for domestic sewage from KNS-3 to the Tashlyk Reservoir along the NK-1–NK-2 section Інтент. Solar panels and batteries are also planned for the pumping stations Інтент.
How will the project be procured?
Procurement is part of the implementation discussion: in September, the city council, utility officials and experts discussed project preparation and implementation, conducting procurement and defining the scope of work Інтент. The source did not report the tender package, evaluation method, contract award, delivery lead time or construction schedule Інтент.
What operating information is available for equipment scoping?
The project scope identifies the two stations, the pressure-main alignment and planned solar-panel and battery installations, but does not provide design flow, pump duties, retention time, solids-loading data, wastewater BOD or COD, or power demand Інтент. Equipment selection would therefore require those hydraulic, process and electrical inputs rather than the grant headline value Інтент.
