Russia’s first major onshore wind farm is to be built next year in the Adygeya region east of the Crimea. 

The planned 150MW pilot wind farm is set for installation in the Russian Republic of Adygeya beginning in late 2018. Under development by JSC OTEC, a subsidiary of Russian atomic energy player Rosatom, the project will see an investment of some Rb12b (US$215m).
