According to it the energy utility and the Ministry of Industry and Trade of the Republic of Tatarstan will continue collaboration with regards to further development and implementation of the future renewable projects. The Government will continue to provide administrative support in the development of the wind projects, including assistance with the land, grid connection and examination of the future possibility to recognize the projects as the regional important ones in the Republic of Tatarstan. In particular, the company and the Government will concentrate their efforts in the Kamsko-Ustyinsky, Verkhneuslonsky, Atninsky, Yelabuzhsky and
Chistopolsky Districts of the Republic of Tatarstan.
This agreement further reinforces the intention of the company to develop wind projects in the region following signing in April 2019 of another renewable energy treaty according to which the parties are jointly studying the opportunities for the development of renewable energy. The activities will be performed through Enel Green Power Rus, a local branch of Enel Green Power, the Enel Group’s company dedicated to the development, construction and operation of renewables across the world.
“The Republic of Tatarstan has an enormous potential in renewables with its abundant natural resources.
With the expertise and leadership of the Enel Group’s renewable energy business line, Enel Green Power, we are willing to contribute to the development of RES projects in the region and further promote its more sustainable energy mix,” - said Carlo Palasciano Villamagna, Enel Country Manager in Russia.
The Agreement envisages that the actual implementation of the wind farm construction projects depends on whether the renewable energy support program is extended by the Government of the Russian Federation for the period of 2025-2035.
