Projects of the State Atomic Energy Corporation Rosatom (ROSATOM) in wind power

General information.

· The decision to diversify the portfolio of offers in low-carbon energy is a logical continuation of the business development of the State Atomic Energy Corporation Rosatom (ROSATOM). Such moves by the State Atomic Energy Corporation Rosatom (ROSATOM) directly contribute to the implementation of the state strategy that envisages the transition to the environmentally sustainable development model by 2025.

· Wind energy projects are implemented by a subsidiary company - wind power division of the State Atomic Energy Corporation Rosatom (ROSATOM)– Rosatom Renewable energy JSC.The division implements the overall strategy of the State Atomic Energy Corporation Rosatom (ROSATOM) for the low carbon energy production based on wind energy.

· Rosatom Renewable EnergyJSC acts as a system integrator of wind power projects and effectively addresses the entire range of tasks, such as wind power plant design, in-house production of wind power plant components, management of the chain of suppliers and logistics of components to the platform, subsequent service and operation.

· At the initial stage, Rosatom Renewable EnergyJSC carried out technology transfer; now the tasks of ensuring technological independence and sovereignty of the wind power industry, the importance of which will only grow worldwide, are being addressed.

 · Despite the current geopolitical situation and its effects, the State Atomic Energy Corporation Rosatom (ROSATOM) and technological partners in wind power projects are progressively and responsibly approaching the fulfillment of their commitments both with regard to the construction of generating facilities and the creation of domestic production facilities.

· Rosatom Renewable Energy JSC also sets itself the goal of entering foreign markets. The company plans to form a portfolio of renewable energy projects of up to 5 GW by 2030.

Projects underway:

The construction of the Novolakskaya Wind Power Station is underway. The Novolakskaya WPS is located in the Kumtorkalinsky and Novolaksky Districts of the Republic of Dagestan.

The installed capacity of the wind farm will be 300 MW. The planned average annual energy yield is 879 million kWh. The Novolakskaya Wind Power Station will consist of 120 wind power plants with a capacity of 2.5 MW each.

The construction will be carried out in two stages: the first stage (61 wind power plants with a total installed capacity of 152.5 MW) will be completed in 2025. The second stage (59 wind power plants with a total installed capacity of 147.5 MW) will be completed in 2026.

· To date, 1,035 MW of wind power capacity has already been commissioned. These are 9 wind power plants in the south of Russia.

· In total, by 2028, ROSATOM will have to create wind power stations with a total capacity of more than 2 GW (taking into account the already commissioned capacities).

· To automate the control and management of wind power stations, RosatomRenewable energy JSC has developed a software solution that allows real-time collection of information on the operation of each wind power plant for analysis and prompt response of maintenance personnel. This allowed the company to be import-independent in terms of software for WPS management.
