“Although the Kyrgyz Republic is among the regions with the greatest potential for renewable energy, we have not used wind energy, solar energy and biogas technology energy in our consumption. We have more than 300 sunny days a year, and the power of the local wind is reflected in folk legends. Now we are witnessing the start of construction of a 100-megawatt wind power plant in the village of Kok-Moinok on the shore of Lake Issyk-Kul,” Akylbek Zhaparov said in his speech, noting high expectations for the project and expressing confidence that the company will use modern technologies and equipment, and actively attract local workers, which will contribute to the creation of new jobs and replenishment of the local budget both at the construction stage and at the stage of operation of the facility.
Deputy Prime Minister of the Russian Federation Alexey Overchuk congratulated the guests of the event on the start of construction of the wind power plant, wishing the enterprise successful operations.
