Tashkent, Uzbekistan (UzDaily.com) -- 2021 in the energy sector of Uzbekistan is the year of the largest projects, while there have simply never been any analogues of many of them in the country.

The first project: Over the past 6 months of this year, 10 contracts were signed for the construction of thermal, solar and wind power plants in the electric power industry with a total capacity of 4341 MW, which is about a third of the current capacity of operating power plants in Uzbekistan.

Second project: This year, for the first time in the history of the electric power industry, 2 large solar power plants with a capacity of 100 MW each will be launched in Navoi and Samarkand regions.

Third project: By the end of this year 2021, in general, thermal and solar power plants with a total capacity of 1,800 MW will be commissioned. The commissioning of such a large capacity of the electric power industry in 1 year has never been in Uzbekistan!

Fourth project: In 2021, additional high-voltage transformers with a total capacity of 1,568 megavolt-amperes (MVA) will be installed at 17 electrical substations. Also, by the end of the year, it is planned to launch 3 investment projects: for the reconstruction of a high-voltage line of 500 sq. "Guzar-Regar", on the expansion of the open switchgear (OSG) at the substation of 500 sq. "Surkhan" and on the construction of a base substation for power supply of external facilities of the electrified railway line "Pop-Namangan-Andijan". Projects of such capacities are being commissioned for the first time within one year.

Fifth project: Also during the current year, 15,000 km of low-voltage power transmission lines will be reconstructed and updated, which is the first such large-scale reconstruction in the history of the power industry in Uzbekistan.

Sixth project: Another large-scale work is the modernization and reconstruction of 4 thousand transformer substations, which is being implemented and will be completed by the end of the year.

Seventh project: This year the largest investment project in the region and the only one of its kind in the CIS - the Uzbekistan GTL project - will be launched in Kashkadarya region.

Eighth project: In 2021, within the framework of the state program, an automated electricity metering and control system (ASKUE) was installed for all 7.3 million subscribers.

Ninth project: In 2021, as part of the implementation of an automated system for accounting and control of natural gas (ASKUG), modern electronic gas meters will be installed free of charge for all more than 3.5 million consumers.

Project ten: In 2021, the installation of barcodes on household gas cylinders will be completed throughout the country. Now the control of LPG cylinders will also be provided online.

All the data we have just shared with you is based on publicly available reports from the Department of Energy. 2021 is a breakthrough year for ensuring the energy security of Uzbekistan, for the planning and implementation of the adopted plans and projects by the Ministry of Energy, together with partner organizations and companies.
