In Ukraine, a program continues to be implemented in which retirees can replace old incandescent bulbs with five LED lamps for free in Ukrposhta branches. As of January 4, Ukrainians in 23 thousand settlements will be able to benefit from the program. This was reported by the press service of the Ministry of Economy of Ukraine.

In order to make an exchange, retirees must submit the following documents:
- passport;
- identification code;
- identity of the retiree;
- phone number.
“As of December 5, retirees replaced 4.5 million old incandescent lamps with new energy-saving lamps,” the Ministry of Economy said.
Replacing old bulbs with energy-saving bulbs: What is known about the program
The lamp replacement program in Ukraine is implemented with the support of the European Union (EU). For this, European partners delivered 6.6 million LED bulbs to our country at the end of winter 2023. As Minister of Economy Yulia Sviridenko explained, the EU program will help save on energy consumption.
And Head of the EU Delegation to Ukraine Matti Maasikas he said Modern LED lamps help save electricity by around 80% compared to older lamps. So, if you replace 50 million lamps in Ukraine, energy savings of up to 1 gigawatt will allow you to lighten the load on one nuclear reactor.
Where else can you change lamps?
