The Ministry hosted a regular meeting of the working group on implementing the wind farm construction project under the chairmanship of Minister Karimov.

The working group was created in December 2018 to organise the interaction of ministries, agencies, local self-government bodies, and industrial enterprises in the construction of wind farms in Tatarstan.

To date, wind measurements have been completed in the Kama-Ustinsky, Rybno-Slobodsky and Spassky districts of the republic. In addition, wind monitoring is now being conducted in other districts of Tatarstan to identify additional potential sites for wind farm construction.

A total of sixteen such sites have been identified; it is there that the experts from the Kazan State Power Engineering University are now determining the wind potential of the republic. This was explained at the meeting by Nail Timerbaev, head of the Renewable Energy Department at KSPEU.

At the end of the meeting, the participants agreed on the development of a Roadmap to coordinate project implementation efforts.
