According to national body, intergovernmental council approved a project “Expanding Talimardjan thermal power station with construction of two combined-cycle plants with a capacity of 450 MW” and “Construction of combined-cycle plant with the capacity of 370 megawatt at Tashkent thermal power station”.
It is expected that the modernization of stations will allow to cut 1.543 million tonnes of CO2 emission a year. Currently, the average price of certified emission reduction makes up 6.76 euros per tonne (EUA price). The raised funds will be directed to modernization of thermal power stations.
