Ukrainians have started buying more powerful charging stations and generators. Foxtrot recorded a 7.8-fold increase in sales of certain models

In a week, sales of charging stations in the "Foxtrot" network more than doubled, and generators — by 320%. At the same time, buyers are increasingly choosing more powerful models for backup power supply to homes.

This was reported by the press service of the "Foxtrot" electronics store network.

The company notes that in 2026, demand is gradually shifting from compact charging stations, which were popular in 2024–2025, to models with larger capacity. They make it possible to provide backup power not only for individual devices but also for part of household appliances.

The average receipt for charging stations increased by 43% over the year and reached UAH 45,000. "Foxtrot" explains this by exchange rate fluctuations, price increases, and changing consumer preferences.

The largest growth in sales in October was recorded by the network among stations with a capacity of 2001–2500 Wh — they were purchased 7.8 times more often than in the same period last year. Sales of models at 2501–3000 Wh increased fivefold, and stations with a capacity of more than 3000 Wh — by 3.3 times.

Instead, demand for more compact devices decreased. Sales of stations with a capacity of 601–1000 Wh fell by 62%, and models up to 600 Wh — by 20%.

In the generator market, demand for more powerful solutions is also growing. In October 2026 compared with September, generator sales in quantitative terms increased by 59%. The average receipt increased by 33% over the year — to UAH 28,000.

Generators with a capacity of 3–5 kW remain the most popular. At the same time, "Foxtrot" notes growing interest in inverter models and comprehensive backup power systems — in particular, inverters in combination with rechargeable batteries. In September-October 2026, sales of such systems and inverters increased by 145% in quantitative terms.

Among the popular brands of charging stations and generators in the network, Marstek, EcoFlow, and Forte were named.

"Foxtrot" also reported a shortage of compact charging stations with a capacity of up to 1 kWh and dual-fuel generators that run on gas and gasoline. There is a particular shortage of models with a capacity of about 3 kW.
