Kamchatka Project
Implemented under NEDO's funding for the demonstration of cold-climate wind turbines. Three of the KWT300 equipped with cold-climate packages were constructed in a small town in Kamchatka, Russia, proving their reliability for operation in cold climate conditions. The project contributes to the reduction of fuel consumption at diesel power plants.
