Korean investors are ready to take part in realization of socially-significant projects in Kamchatka. More than 10 proposals from the representatives of South Korean business were received in address of the delegation of Kamchatka in the way of the presentation of investment potential of Kamchatskiy krai in Seoul, Republic of Korea.
On the 3rd of April the delegation headed by the Governor of Kamchatskiy krai and the Chairman of Legislative Assembly of Kamchatskiy krai represented the most significant projects of the peninsula development to Korean side.
“In recent years cooperation of Kamchatskiy krai and Republic of Korea is getting closer, - the Governor of Kamchatskiy krai Vladimir Ilukhin noted. – Last year foreign trade turnover of Kamchatka with the Korean side increased by almost one third and it exceeded 430 million dollars. Today Korea is one of key foreign partners of our region.”
The head of the region stressed that the authorities are interested in attraction of investments in economics of the peninsula: in agriculture, energetics, new fields development, and development of infrastructure.
The delegation of Kamchatka presented three main projects of development of the region: complex development of energetics of Kamchatskiy krai, development of the system of water supply and water disposal, and building of year-round international ski resort.
The greatest interest of Korean side was attracted by the projects of building of Kronotskaya hydroelectric power plant for 230 microwatt and the largest in the world tidal power plant in Penzhinskiy region.
“There are the highest in the Pacific ocean tidal waves in Penzhinskaya bay – up to 30 meters. Building of the tidal power plant will give us an opportunity not only to provide electricity to Kamchatskiy krai, but also to supply electricity to the countries of Asian-Pacific region, – director of JSC “Fund of development of energetics of Kamchatka” Vladimir Kudryashov told. He noted that there are technologies in Korea making possible to accumulate energy and transport it in accumulators.
“Besides next to the tidal power plant we are planning to build a liquefied hydrogen producing plant. Everybody knows that this is the fuel of the future and it undoubtedly will be in demand,” – Vladimir Kudryashov said.
Representatives of Korean business agree with him. According to potential investor of the project of Kronotskaya hydroelectric power plant building, representative of Korean corporation of hydro- and atomic energetics, Mr. Lim, all modern technologies, used in Korea nowadays, may be employed during realization of this project in Kamchatka. “We are very interested in this project. Surely to make a decision of building, we need to work out the project, but I’d like to say that hydro energetics may be quite profitable,”- Mr. Lim noted.
Korean investors showed great interest to the project of creation of modern system of water supply and water disposal in Petropavlovsk-Kamchatskiy and Elizovo district. “The project provides development of Bystrinskiy field of fresh water and modernization of existing system of water supply in Petropavlovsk-Kamchatskiy – Elizovo agglomeration. It’s important for us that Bystrinskiy field is situated above the city, and water will flow spontaneously that will afford us to economize about 15 thousand kilowatt of electricity per year,” – deputy director of Municipal Enterprise “Water services company of Petropavlovsk”, Oleg Khvorostov said. Besides, in the network of the project development creation of manufacture of bottled water is proposed.
Among key Kamchatka projects was the project of ski resort building on the basis of four grounds: Moroznaya mountain, Avacha volcano, Topoloviy range and Petrovskaya bald mountain. This project was supported by the Federal Agency of tourism.
“Kamchatka is a very promising region,” – deputy director of the agency, Gregory Sarishvily, noted. He stressed that the Agency of tourism together with the authorities of the region was ready to lend assistance and support to Korean partners.
“We looked through ski resort in the neighborhood of Seoul. This is a very modern complex with the developed infrastructure. I think that analogical complex will soon appear in Kamchatskiy krai. There are all conditions in Kamchatka to create a resort of international importance. Surely we won’t be able to build four grounds at once, but gradually we will manage to do that,” – Minister of sport and tourism of Kamchatskiy krai, Viktor Kravchenko noted.
In the way of the presentation of investment potential of Kamchatskiy krai Kamchatka delegation received more than 10 proposals of cooperation from Korean partners. “Interest of potential investors was not indolent, and, by all means, it will have effect, – the governor of Kamchatskiy krai, Vladimir Ilukhin, noted. – It’s very important that besides the projects we presented other spheres aroused great interest. There were many questions from Korean businessmen in the sphere of management of natural resources. Some investors, interested in building of Kronotskiy hydroelectric power plant and tidal power plant, are planning to arrive in Kamchatka in a week already.”
“In the nearest several days we are planning to hold meetings in specific directions: based on the projects in the sphere of tourism, healthcare and energetic, - speaker of Kamchatka parliament, Valeriy Rayenko, noted. – I think that in the nearest future these projects will be realized in Kamchatka because we have really partnership relations formed with Korean side.”
“Kamchatskiy krai is gradually entering a world market,” – Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary of RF in RK, Konstantin Vnukov said in the way of the presentation. He stressed that Kamchatka was gradually forging relationship with Korea, and expressed his hope for the volume of investments to the region would increase.
