"Bogatyr Komir" has initiated the pilot operation of the CFT

Today, at the Ekibastuz coal open-pit mine, operated by the largest coal mining company in the country, “Bogatyr Komir” LLP, a pilot operation of cyclic-flow technology for coal mining and transportation (CFT) was initiated.

“Bogatyr Komir” has commenced the development of the CFT project as far back as 2014, signing a contract with ThyssenKrupp for equipment manufacturing and supply. The active phase of project implementation began in 2020.In the process of constructing the facility, an intricate system of conveyors, stretching over a total length of 11.5 kilometers, was erected, along with the installation of four crushers, two stackers-reclaimers, two blending loaders, and an automated coal loading station for wagons.

As part of the extensive cyclic-flow complex construction, over 40,000 reinforced concrete structures were utilized, alongside metal structures and equipment weighing more than 15,000 tons, all encompassing an area of 174,000 square meters.

A total of 430 employees from Kazakh contracting companies and 30 German specialists were engaged in the construction of CFT facilities during a three-year period.

Even amid the challenges posed by the pandemic and quarantine restrictions, including border closures and worker isolation, as well as logistical difficulties, the construction pace remained unaltered.

As of the close of 2022, the CFT project implementation reached its concluding phases. Today, the initial coal tons, having traversed the primary technological stages of the complex from crushing to wagon loading, were dispatched via train to the CHP-2 in Astana city. The full completion of the "Cyclic-flow technology of coal mining at the Bogatyr open-pit mine" project and the facility's commissioning are scheduled for the summer of 2023.

During the trial run of the CPT, there are still tasks ahead, including equipment configuration, establishment of quality control systems, coal blending, measuring the weight and proportioning of railcars, dust suppression systems, and ensuring seamless automated interaction of the complex with robotic tractors and automatic dispatcher control system (ADCS) previously implemented at the enterprise. This enables the creation of a unified information environment encompassing "Excavator - Dump Truck - CFT" / "Excavator Operator - Driver - CFT Operator - Mining Dispatcher."

The primary significance of the CFT project for “Bogatyr Komir” LLP and the Republic of Kazakhstan's economy lies in modernizing the aging core technological equipment to guarantee a steady coal supply to power plants. Additionally, it ensures the efficient extraction of coal reserves from a depth of 230 meters, a task unattainable with the previous railway technology.

A syndicate of banks will finance Almaty CHP-2 transfer to gas

Works on transfer to gas and complete retrofit of one of the largest thermal power plants in Kazakhstan - Almaty CHP-2 have reached the stage of practical implementation. The issues related to the sources of financing for the project were resolved after an international tender for the construction of a gas station announced in October.

Today, November 25, 2022, in Almaty, the Facility Agreement for financing the project “Modernization of Almaty CHP-2 with minimization of environmental impact” was signed between “Almaty Power Plants” JSC (APP), the owner of the station, and the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD). The amount of the deal is 130 bn. tenge.

During the event, an Agreement of Intent on provision of financing for the project was signed between APP and the Development Bank of Kazakhstan (DBK).

Works on construction of a new gas station at the site next to the old CHP-2 is planned with the involvement of funds from the syndicate, leading international and Kazakh banks - the EBRD, the Asian Development Bank (ADB) and the Development Bank of Kazakhstan (DBK). The project will be financed in the national currency - in tenge, with a floating interest rate pegged to TONIA (Tenge Overnight Index Average).

The project is implemented with the support of “Samruk-Kazyna” Fund” JSC. The Sovereign Wealth Fund will provide its corporate guarantee, which, according to experts, helps to minimize risks and improve lending terms, and the agreement itself provides the project with long-term financing.

The facility agreement was signed by Yerlan Kirkimbaev, “APP” JSC Chairman of the Board, and Aida Sitdikova, Director of the Energy Department for the Eurasia, Middle East and Africa regions of the EBRD. The document signing event was held with the participation of representatives of the EBRD, DBK, “Samruk-Energy” JSC, “APP” JSC, Almaty city mayor administration.

Serik Tutebayev, the Chairman of the Board of “Samruk-Energy” JSC, noted that a lot of work had been done to arrange financing, including environmental impact assessment in accordance with international standards and assessment of applicable technologies, considering world experience. “The Government of the Republic of Kazakhstan, “Samruk-Kazyna” Fund and “Samruk-Energy” JSC focus efforts on the development of Almaty mega city. In addition to the modernization of the Almaty CHP-2, in order to improve the environmental situation and further develop renewable energy facilities in the Almaty energy hub, we are also implementing the project “Construction of a 545 MW gas station with a combined cycle” on the territory of Almaty CHP-3. This facility will be put into operation in 2025 and will significantly reduce the shortage of maneuvering capacity in this region, Serik Tutebayev said.

According to the EBRD Vice President Alain Pilloux, the bank expects climate and green finance to account for more than half of the EBRD's annual investments by 2025. “This is a great example of a green project that will improve the air quality in Almaty, the quality of life of the local population and bring Kazakhstan closer to complying with the Paris Agreement and its goal of achieving carbon neutrality by 2060,” said the EBRD representative.

As a reminder, earlier, on October 27, 2022, the EBRD announced the launch of a two-stage open international tender, which is conducted in accordance with the rules of an international financial institution. The technical specification for the selection of an EPC contractor and the draft EPC contract were developed according to the FIDIC (International Federation of Consulting Engineers) Yellow Book. Acceptance of applications from potential contractors for the supply of equipment, design, and construction of a new gas station at the site of Almaty CHP-2 within the first stage will last until December 15, 2022.

The project "Modernization of Almaty CHP-2 with minimization of environmental impact" involves the construction of a new station using gas turbine technologies with a capacity of up to 600 MW at the site of Almaty CHP-2. The deadline for full commissioning is December 2026. The project aims to reduce the negative environmental impact of the station on Almaty city’s environment by switching the station to firing natural gas, as well as providing consumers in Almaty city and the Almaty region with a reliable and uninterrupted supply of heat and electricity in accordance with load schedules.

Based on expert estimates, the plant’s gasification project meets the most stringent requirements of the Republic of Kazakhstan and the European Union. These compliances will reduce emissions of harmful substances from CHP plants by 93%; eliminate particulate matters and sulfur oxides from emissions, create and dispose ash and slag waste; will provide noiseless operation of the units. All this together should reduce the area of ​​influence of the plant on the environment and residents of Almaty mega city.

A new wind power plant was put into operation in Kazakhstan

A new 60 MW wind power plant (WPP) has been commissioned in Kazakhstan. The energy facility was built in the Yenbekshikazakh district of the Almaty region in the so-called Shelek corridor, a unique region for the development of renewable energy potential.

The cost of the project is 37.4 bn. tenge. The new station includes 24 wind turbines, each with a nominal capacity of 2.5 MW. Moreover, a substation, the accompanying infrastructure, as well as overhead power lines were installed in the plant. The plant was built using equipment from GoldWind, one of the world's leading manufacturers of wind turbines.

The new wind farm will generate 225.7 million kWh of electricity annually. In addition to operating characteristics, the project is crucial for the region because of its environmental component. The construction and launch of the power plant will reduce greenhouse gas emissions by up to 206 thousand tons, and will also replace about 89 thousand tons of reference fuel per year.

The project was implemented by the Kazakh electric power holding “Samruk-Energy” JSC in partnership with the Chinese corporation Power China and is a successful example of international cooperation in the power sector.

The ceremony of launching a new wind farm in the Shelek corridor was held with the participation of the Minister of Energy of the Republic of Kazakhstan, the Mayor of Almaty Region, the head of Samruk-Kazyna Fund, representatives of the Chinese Consulate General in the Republic of Kazakhstan, Power China Corporation, “Samruk-Energy” JSC, “Energia Semirechya” LLP ".

The online teleconference project was launched by Bolat Akchulakov, the Minister of Energy of the Republic of Kazakhstan, and Almassadam Satkaliyev, the Chairman of the Board of “Samruk-Kazyna” JSC

As part of the wind farm commissioning activities, a Memorandum of Cooperation was signed between “Samruk-Kazyna” JSC and Power Construction Corporation of China Ltd. The document says that the second phase of the project is planned to be implemented with the expansion of the station and an increase in its capacity to 300 MW.

The head of the Samruk-Kazyna Fund expressed gratitude to all participants in the project implementation. Addressing the Chinese partners, he noted that over the years of independence, our countries have managed to achieve a level of strategic partnership and alliance based on a solid foundation of peoples' friendship and mutual trust. “I am sure that the WPP project in the Shelek corridor will become another example of a successful partnership with China in the current relevant issue of ensuring energy security and developing alternative energy sources. The 60 MW power plant with further expansion to 300 MW will provide clean electricity to the south-eastern regions of Kazakhstan,” Almassadam Satkaliyev noted.

At the stage of construction of a new power facility, 300 people were provided with jobs. 14 specialists were trained and employed for further operation of the station.

As the experts of “Samruk-Energy” JSC noted, despite the energy capacities currently operating in Almaty and the region - Almaty CHP, Kapshagay and Almaty Cascade HPPs, Zhambyl GRES, as well as Issyk, Moynak, Kataral, Taldykorgan HPPs - the region is energy deficient and has not sufficient own fuel resources. Due to the lack of generating capacities, the region's need for electricity is covered by its own energy sources only by 50%. The deficit is made up of external energy producers (from the northern regions of the republic, Zhambyl GRES, and Kyrgyzstan).

According to Serik Tutebayev, acting Chairman of the Board of “Samruk-Energy” JSC, the company places an emphasis on the development of renewable energy. The energy holding currently operates 5 renewable energy facilities - solar, wind power plants, and small hydroelectric power plants. The generation of electricity by these renewable energy facilities in January-July 2022 amounted to 206.6 million kWh, which is 8.9% higher compared to the same period in 2021.

“There are many natural opportunities to produce green electricity in the Almaty region. In addition to the potential of solar and wind, Samruk-Energy focuses on the development of hydropower, as evidenced by the completed projects for the construction of the Moynak HPP and the retrofit of the Shardarinsk HPP. The company's portfolio includes several projects for the construction of new hydroelectric power plants. In particular, the construction of a counter-regulating Kerbulak HPP on the Ili River with a capacity of 40 MW, which will make it possible to equalize uneven weekly-daily releases of the Kapshagay HPP and transfer the station to cover peak loads using all available capacity.

Furthermore, the company is carrying out pre-project activities on the construction of HPP-29 on the Shelek River in order to create a source of electricity for supply to the scarce energy system of the Almaty region. In the long term, it is planned to implement a project for the reconstruction and modernization of the AlES HPP cascade in the Almaty region. The project will enable to effectively use of the hydro-technical resources of the Bolshaya Almatinka River, increasing the generation of electricity at the reconstructed HPP-1 and HPP-2,” said the head of “Samruk-Energy” JSC.

In total, according to the Ministry of Energy of the Republic of Kazakhstan, as of July 2022, 142 renewable energy facilities are operating in Kazakhstan. Since the beginning of the year, 8 facilities with a total capacity of 322 MW have been put into operation in Kazakhstan. 13 facilities with a total installed capacity of 153 MW are planned to be commissioned by the end of 2022. 

Investment projects in power sector of Almaty agglomeration
