On April 19, 2018, Dmitry Medvedev held a meeting on creating a digital network in Russia by the year 2030. Launched in pursuance of the Russian President Vladimir Putin’s initiative to have the country’s power industry transition to digital operations, the network is expected to function with the use of domestically-produced equipment and technologies. In order to implement this initiative, the government envisions establishing joint ventures between the Rostec state corporation and Rosseti with the goal of developing a smart power grid complex. Dmitry Medvedev instructed the relevant ministries and departments, as well as the appropriate stakeholders, to work out the details regarding the size of Rostec’s investment in Rosseti for implementing this project.
