Abstract
The article shows that this large-scale project, which includes constructing the Power of Siberia cross-country gas pipeline, developing Siberian gas fields, building a gas processing plant and a helium plant complex, will promote the economic development of Eastern Siberia and the Far East and improve their investment attractiveness. An important social result of the Power of Siberia project will be increased employment rates at factories producing equipment and components for the gas industry, in construction sector companies, and others. The Power of Siberia pipeline route was chosen in such a manner that it will gasify the maximum possible number of populated localities. Gasification of households and enterprises in regions will improve the quality of life and the environment, allow organizing a series of new high-performance plants and industries, and enhance the competitiveness of their products.
