en.Wedoany.com Reported - Alexey Likhachev, CEO of Rosatom, stated that the wind farm planned by the company in the Far East will enter the main construction phase by the end of 2026. As part of the Primorskaya Nuclear Power Plant (Приморская АЭС) construction plan, a wind power project with a total installed capacity of approximately 400 MW will be built simultaneously in the region, expected to be connected to the grid in phases between 2027 and 2029. The Primorskaya Nuclear Power Plant is scheduled to begin operation in the early 2030s.
On July 22, the second phase of the Novolakskaya Wind Farm (Новолакская ВЭС) in the Republic of Dagestan was officially commissioned, adding 147.5 MW of installed capacity, bringing the total capacity of the wind farm to 300 MW.
Rosatom Renewable Energy (АО «Росатом Возобновляемая энергия») plans to advance wind power projects in the Far East over the next two years to address the region's tight electricity supply situation. Russia's Ministry of Energy has requested relevant departments to deploy large-scale renewable energy generation capacity in the short term.
Additionally, the company's first overseas wind power project—a wind farm in Kyrgyzstan—has been preliminarily planned and is expected to start construction in 2026.
