The Energy Ministry of Russia (Minenergo) has developed the procedures for financial support of power generation based on using renewable energy sources.
According to the program envisaged by the ministry the renewable energy facilities of small capacity may sell electrical energy to the grid companies at the retail market and larger players of the energy market will have the possibility to obtain contracts for power delivery supply.
Besides, the draft law suggests introducing additional criteria for qualifying a generating facility based on renewable energy sources in particular – its compliance with the criteria of environmental efficiency and the location of manufacturing the technological equipment used in the generating facilities on the territory of the Russian Federation.
There is a plan to prepare and adopt the main legislative acts aimed at regulating the use of the renewable energy sources within 2012.
