The pilot project involves the construction of microgeneration Park with a capacity of 35 MW. The consortium for the construction of a wind farm consisted of the development Corporation of the Ulyanovsk region, UK "DARS", Ulyanovsk nanocenter ULNANOTECH and the company "AeroComposite-Ulyanovsk", whose capacity is scheduled to release the blade. The total investment in Russia's first wholesale wind farm will be approximately € 65 million. Ulyanovsk oblast has taken on the development of plots, development of infrastructure and carrying out measurements of the wind speed.

The second phase of the Park is designed for a capacity of about 600 MW.
