THE Ministry of Electricity and Energy is conducting feasibility studies for largescale wind power projects in cooperation with private investors, covering 30 wind projects with a combined capacity of 5,108 megawatts.
Beyond these large wind projects, the ministry is pursuing a generation mix that combines renewable energy, natural gas and other energy sources to avoid dependence on any single source for electricity generation.
In the first phase, two small nuclear power plants of 55 megawatts each, totalling 110 megawatts, have been selected for construction, and a pre-feasibility study has been completed with assistance from the Russian Federation.
