NovaWind JSC has completed the 150MW Adygea wind farm in Russia, which has now started supplying power to the country’s wholesale electricity and capacity market.
The project comprises 60 Lagerwey L100 2.5MW turbines, of which 65% of the components were produced locally.
The first 32.5MW phase featuring 13 turbines was finished in December last year.
Adygea is the first completed project by NovaWind JSC, which is the wind energy division of Rosatom.
The company said it aims to increase the localised content of its future wind farms to 80%-85%.
Rosatom said it is currently building four more wind farms in the Stavropol Kray and the Rostov regions.
The next project will be a 210MW facility in the Kochubeyevsky district of Stavropol Kray.
By 2023, Rosatom aims to have installed wind farms totalling 1GW.
Lagerwey is owned by German manufacturer Enercon.
