Russia Says Domestic Power-Equipment Makers Can Meet Demand

Officials cite rising turbine output alongside approved capacity plans to justify the outlook.

Overview

First Deputy Prime Minister Denis Manturov said Russian producers of core generating equipment can cover all forecast demand.
Current domestic capacity for large turbines stands at eight units a year and is set to reach 14 annually by 2030.
Planned investment in boosting energy-equipment production over the next few years totals 50–100 billion rubles.
Government planning envisions 88.477 GW of new generating capacity by 2042, lifting total installed capacity to 299.345 GW, with an approved supply‑demand balance through 2030.
Authorities say needs for steam and gas turbines are fully met by existing capabilities, while part of generator manufacturing capacity remains underutilized.
