The project description: The project relates to power industry and focuses on ensuring reliable operation of the existing hydropower plant and increasing capacity to cover the energy needs in the region. The project was implemented to upgrade the existing production by retrofitting the existing HPP equipment using up-to-date technologies, which resulted in an increase in the capacity of the hydropower plant from 100 MW to 126 MW, greater reliability of its operation and reduction of the risk of accidents.
The project goals:
- Replacement of obsolete equipment to increase the performance and safety of the plant’s operation;
- an increase in the station's installed capacity by 26% (from 100 MW to 126 MW) and electricity generation to cover the growing electricity supply shortage in the region;
- increasing the efficiency of the station by reducing the direct costs associated with the repair and maintenance of equipment;
- Increasing the station's capacity by upgrading the existing equipment;
- improve reliability of equipment operation and mitigate the risk of accidents.
The project implementation period: 2010-2020
Status:
The Certificate on acceptance of the power facility into operation was signed on August 28, 2020.
