“Today the Russian energy sector is one of the greenest in the world.
If you look at hydropower, atomic energy, and renewable energy sources, this is 40%.
And if together with gas - 86%, "- quoted by TASS Putin.
According to him, "Russia is only overtaken by 2-4 countries."
The Russian leader also noted that Russia plans to further increase the volume of gas production and supplies.
He added that the developed oil and gas infrastructure of Russia can be used for the production and supply of hydrogen to the external market as part of the policy to diversify the Russian economy.
