“This is the result of your hard work and professionalism.
Each of you is doing everything to ensure that the country's energy system functions reliably.
After all, the growth of the economy, the work of industry and agriculture, transport, hospitals and clinics, an increase in the standard of living of millions of our citizens, and ensuring the energy security of the state depend on this, ”Mishustin's message says.
He noted that the country's electricity industry is dynamically developing and is putting into operation "new generation capacities, power lines and transformer substations."
In addition, there is a transition to a new generation of energy based on digital and environmentally friendly technologies, the prime minister added.
As the head of the Ministry of Industry and Trade Denis Manturov said earlier, it is planned to create hydrogen turbines in Russia in five to six years to transfer part of power generation to hydrogen.
Russian President Vladimir Putin noted that, according to international experts, Russia is among the leaders in global decarbonization, and the share of energy from practically carbon-free sources in the country exceeds 40%, and including natural gas, it is 86%.
