General Director of JSC "Transenercom" Oleg Shevtsov commented to TEK-ALL on the construction of hydropower plants in Russia: “In 2022, the Russian Ministry of Energy has planned the construction of new hydropower plants - thirteen projects with a total capacity of 6.5 GW over the coming years. As sources of investment, long-term borrowings, provision of additional tax benefits, involvement of the Project Financing Factory in projects were considered. However, the definition of partnership conditions and their search are still being worked out.
The priority project in 2023 was the construction of eight hydroelectric power plants in the regions of the Far East. For example, in the Amur region, two more hydroelectric power plants will be built, in addition to the existing ones, in the Khabarovsk Territory - the Nimanskaya hydroelectric power station, which in the future will make it possible to create an energy bridge to Sakhalin. As part of the Russian Hydropower Development Program, agreed in 2016, by 2030 it is planned to build 15.5 GW of new capacities at HPPs, and in the period from 2030 to 2050 — 25 GW. However, at present it is not clear whether consumers need such a volume of electricity, especially given the current economic conditions and low rates of industrial production. In addition, the main factors stopping the growth in the number of hydroelectric power plants in Russia are the need for large investments and slow payback, which requires state support, special regulation that guarantees a return on investment.
