It is estimated that when the construction work is completed and the enterprise starts operating permanently, the number of permanent employees here will reach 300-400.

Currently, a main gas pipeline is being built to supply high-pressure gas for the needs of the enterprise. Land acquisition from private owners has been carried out in the areas where gas systems will be installed, and the pace of construction and installation work has increased.

Emphasis is placed on generating electricity from the area, which will have a positive impact on the economy, provide local residents with permanent jobs, and increase the region's production potential. Among other things, an initiative to build an industrial park in this area will be implemented.
