Teliani Wind LLC is planning a 52.5 MW wind power plant near the village of Zemo Rene in Georgia’s Kaspi municipality.

The proposed project has entered the environmental scoping process, an early stage used to determine which studies and assessments must be completed before an environmental decision can be considered.

Seven wind turbines planned

The project design includes seven Goldwind GW182-7.5 turbines, each with an installed capacity of 7.5 MW.

Supporting infrastructure would include a 110 kV substation, underground and overhead electricity lines, access roads and connections to Georgia’s national power grid.

The developer has not yet announced a construction schedule, investment value or expected commissioning date.

The project should therefore be treated as proposed rather than approved or under construction.

Environmental studies required

Part of the proposed project area falls within Georgia’s Emerald Network, which protects sites of particular importance for European biodiversity.

The environmental assessment will examine possible effects on birds, bats, other wildlife, soil, landscape, noise conditions and aviation safety. Migratory birds are an especially important consideration for Georgian wind projects because the country lies along major regional migration routes.

The assessment process may result in changes to turbine locations, technical requirements or mitigation measures before a final decision is reached.

Further wind development in Kaspi

The proposal follows the commissioning of the 18.75 MW Zemo Wind project elsewhere in Kaspi municipality during spring 2026.

Both projects are connected to companies owned by investor Sulkhan Papashvili, although they are being developed through separate legal entities.

Kaspi and the wider Shida Kartli region have emerged as important locations for wind development because of their wind resources and proximity to existing electricity infrastructure.

If the Teliani Wind project completes environmental review, secures financing and proceeds to construction, it would more than double the capacity of Georgia’s two currently operating wind farms.

Its current inclusion in the development pipeline nevertheless remains subject to regulatory, environmental, technical and investment decisions.
