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 Energy JSC 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 Energy
JSC 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.

To
automate the control and management of wind power stations, Rosatom Renewable
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.
In November 2025, Rusatom Wind Blades JSC (part of Rosatom's Composite Division) delivered the first domestically produced blades to a site near the village of Kok-Moinok-Pervoe in Balykchy, Issyk-Kul Region, Kyrgyz Republic, for the construction of Rosatom's first overseas wind farm. Earlier, in August of that year, nacelles, generators, and hubs from Rosatom Renewable Energy, as well as towers manufactured by VetroStroyDetal LLC, were delivered to the site. Construction of the wind farm is scheduled to begin in 2026.
