The Skolkovo Foundation wants its own testing site in Crimea
The Skolkovo Foundation could use the offshore experimental site at Katsiveli in Crimea to test unconventional energy sources. Academician of the Russian Academy of Sciences, director of the Institute of Catalysis Valentin Parmon stated this today, speaking at the Skolkovo Advisory Scientific Council at Sevastopol State University.

Skolkovo needs test sites for testing non-traditional energy sources. There is one object in Crimea that turned out to be practically ownerless after Crimea became Russian. This is a large training ground in the Katsiveli region. It would make sense for those who make solar panels to take it; chemists would get involved. There would be a point in Russia that would work with great benefit,” Parmon said.
In Katsiveli, on the basis of the experimental department of the Hydrophysical Institute, a marine experimental site has been equipped. Half a kilometer from the coast, on a foundation located at a depth of 35 meters, Europe's first oceanographic platform for hydrophysical research was installed.
In the 1960s The institute built a storm pool - a wind tunnel in the form of a ring, in which the wave, which is accelerated by 20 large fans, does not encounter obstacles and moves as if in open sea conditions. The storm pool is currently not operational. Some of the first studies on the hydrodynamics of dolphins were conducted here.
