Because of it, in 2014 the Ukrainian system of housing and communal services saved about half a billion cubic meters of gas. The funds for re-equipment of boiler rooms were found by the investors, and from the state budget. The western areas of Ukraine, such as Volynska and Rivenska lead in this process.

The chief physician of the medical institution, Alexander Shchur said that the heating expenses were 1250 hryvnias for gigacalorie that is 15% less, than using gas.
