Mikhail Mishustin chairs strategic session on the development of the power-generating sector

On April 8, 2025, Russian Prime Minister Mikhail Mishustin chaired a strategic session focused on advancing the power-generating sector. The session addressed the need to enhance the resilience of the power grid and accommodate the increasing electricity demands from businesses and households. The recently approved plan aims for a 15% capacity increase in the country’s power grid, along with a dual installation of new power-generating equipment and ongoing upgrades of existing infrastructure. Mishustin indicated that the price of electricity, currently among the lowest globally, is a significant advantage for both consumers and industry.
