The Omsk Region Development and Investment Agency monitors the progress of the project.
In mid-August, a working meeting was held at the Ministry of Economy of the Omsk Region under the leadership of Dmitry Ushakov, Deputy Chairman of the Government of the Omsk Region. The meeting discussed the progress of the investment project for the construction of a solar power plant in the Novovarshavsky district.
The meeting was attended by representatives of the Ministry of Economy of the Omsk Region, the Ministry of Construction and Housing and Communal Services of the Omsk Region, the branch of IDGC of Siberia -Omskenergo, the regional Agency for Development and Investment, as well as the Administration of the municipal district.
The investor of the project was Avelar Solar Technology LLC, a member of the Hevel group of companies. The company has a number of already implemented projects in the field of solar energy, and is also engaged in the construction of these facilities in the regions of Russia with high insolation.
"The Omsk region is also part of the "belt" of regions with a high flow of sunlight, so the investor is considering the possibility of building a solar power plant in the south of the region with a capacity of 30 MW. The total investment in the project may amount to about 3 billion rubles, and the amount of annual tax deductions when the facility reaches its design capacity is up to 200 million rubles," said Evgeny Kovtun, General Director of the Omsk Region Development and Investment Agency.
As a result of the working meeting, an agreement in principle was reached between the network organization and the investor on carrying out all necessary preparatory work to connect the future facility to the distribution networks.
