Last week, head of Tesla and SpaceX Elon Musk took part in New Knowledge educational marathon organised for students by the Russian government. In the course of his speech, Musk mentioned the possibility of launching an electric car production facility in Russia.
Tesla may eventually build a plant in Russia, says Bloomberg citing the carmaker’s CEO Elon Musk. Speaking at a Kremlin-sponsored event for students on 21 May, Musk covered a number of topics ranging from his hiring practices to artificial intelligence and the future of human consciousness. Among other things, he praised the history of Russia’s space achievements and expressed openness to build a Tesla Inc. factory in the country one day. “I think we’re close to establishing a Tesla presence in Russia, and I think that would be great,” said the entrepreneur. “Over time, we will look to have factories in other parts of the world, potentially Russia at some point.”
Wind energy accounts for only a small part of Russia’s energy mix, and recent changes to a state support scheme are likely to harm an already weak industry. Wind farms may lose all production payments from the Russian state if they fail to meet localisation, export and production goals.
Wind power operators in Russia will face huge fines for missing localisation and export targets under a recently approved state support scheme, says Windpower Monthly. The new scheme for projects commissioned in 2025-2035 will involve tenders that are scheduled for September 2021. The government is going to allocate 177 million rubles ($2,3 million) to support about 3 gigawatts of new capacity. However, industry groups consider this level of support to be inadequate and warn that it may lead to job losses in the Russian wind sector.
