Tashkent, Uzbekistan (UzDaily.com) - The Ministry of Energy of the Republic of Uzbekistan denies information that has appeared in the media about the plans of the Chinese company China Huaneng Group to build solar power plants in the country.

The Ministry of Energy emphasizes that all companies begin construction of new power plants on the territory of Uzbekistan, only after they are recognized as winners of tenders, during which the best project proposals of applicants are evaluated.

Of course, the interest of every investor in participating in projects to increase generation in the country is welcomed. We also note that each new tender for the construction of new power plants attracts more and more interest from the international community and companies. The number of bidders is growing every year.

At the same time, the work on organizing tenders for each generation project is widely covered. The names of the participants, the winners of the tendering processes and the results obtained are made publicly available. Such information is available, first of all, on all resources of the Ministry of Energy (on the website of the Ministry and official accounts in social networks).

The Ministry of Energy emphasizes that the process of selecting investors for the construction of new power plants is being implemented in accordance with the principles of openness, openness and transparency. One of the main priorities in the selection of investors for the Ministry of Energy is the coverage of all stages of the tender process to the general public.

The Ministry of Energy of the Republic of Uzbekistan did not conduct direct negotiations with the Chinese company China Huaneng Group, in respect of which information was disseminated in a number of media about its intention to invest in the construction of solar power plants in our country.
