• 20MW site based of the business's oil refinery in the southern Volgograd region

Lukoil has actually commissioned its 2nd solar park in Russia's southern Volgograd region.

The 20MW project was built at the territory of firm's oil refinery unused for its core operations.

First solar energy plant with an ability of 10MW came online in 2018.

Both plants will certainly be run by a separate division of Lukoil, established to release the company's eco-friendly companies.

The firm partnered with Russian biggest solar cell and module supplier Hevel Group that carried out EPC works and also supplied solar modules.

The solar ranch will certainly produce 24.5 m kWh of power every year which can minimize CO2 exhausts by 12 thousand tonnes annually.
