Press service of NovaWind JSC, PUBLISHED 02.07.2023

The wind farms operated by NovaWind, Rosatom's wind power division, generated a total of 1.1 billion kWh of electric power in the first six months of 2023, up 110 million kWh year on year. In the first half of 2022, their total output exceeded 987 million kWh.

For half a year, the wind farms prevented the emission of over 380 000 tonnes of CO2 equivalent.

Since the first wind farm was put in operation on 1 March 2020 and until Q2 2023, Rosatom's wind power plants generated as much as 4.5 billion kWh of electricity. The growth of accumulated power output accelerated by 25% after the commissioning of the Berestovskaya and Kuzminskaya Wind Farms in 2023.
