Uzbekistan launches new international tender for 3 hydropower plants

                                         https://www.boland-hydroturbine.com/


Uzbekistan’s state hydropower producer and developer, Uzbekhydroenergo, announced on June 4 a tender for the design and construction of the Rabat, Chappasuy and Tamshush Hydropower Plants on the Aksu River in the Kashkadarya Region of Uzbekistan.
“We are pleased to announce a tender for the design and construction of three new hydropower plants on the Aksu River,” a spokesperson from Uzbekistan’s Energy Ministry said. “These new plants will make a significant contribution to our goal of increasing our power generation capacity. They will also reduce our carbon emissions and grow our clean energy sources. We would also like to thank the Asian Development Bank for its support on this project,” the spokesperson added.
The construction of the three hydropower plants is part of Uzbekistan’s Sustainable Hydropower Project, which is part-financed by the Asian Development Bank (ADB), Uzbekistan’s Energy Ministry said in a press release.
The wider context to the tender is Uzbekistan’s ambitious national energy strategy which aims to meet increasing demands for energy and to generate a quarter of all electricity from renewable sources by 2030. The strategy will see the deployment up to 30 GW of additional power capacity by 2030, including 3.8 GW of hydro energy along with 5 GW or solar energy and up to 3 GW of wind energy. This is also a part of Uzbekistan’s growing role in the regional and international energy markets.
In October 2019, it was announced the ADB had approved $60 million in financing for the construction of hydropower plants, with a total generation capacity of 25MW, in Uzbekistan, the energy ministry said, adding that he total cost of the project is $75.3 million dollars and completion is expected by the end of 2023.
The three hydropower plants will have a total capacity of 24 MW (6 MW Rabat, 8 MW Chappasuy and 10 MW Tamshush) with an associated transmission line (35-110 kV and 22 km in length) and mini-hydro units with aggregate capacity of 1 MW.
According to the energy ministry, international competitive bidding for the project will be conducted in accordance with the ADB’s ‘One-Stage, Two-Envelope’ protocol. The tender is open to all bidders from ADB eligible countries.

Types of Hydropower Plants

                                                   There are three types of hydropower facilities: impoundment, diversion, and pumped storage. Some hydropower plants use dams and some do not. The images below show both types of hydropower plants. MPOUNDMENT The most common type of hydroelectric power plant is an impoundment facility. An impoundment facility, typically a large hydropower system, uses a dam to store river water in a reservoir. Water released from the reservoir flows through a turbine, spinning it, which in turn activates a generator to produce electricity. The water may be released either to meet changing electricity needs or to maintain a constant reservoir level.                                                www....

Uzbekistan’s hydropower potential to boost RES energy balance with EU help

  Uzbekistan’s hydropower potential is growing, and the Central Asian country is looking to boost energy efficiency and increase renewable energy’s share in the country’s energy mix with the help of the European Union, the chairman of Uzbekistan’s state hydropower producer and developer, Uzbekhydroenergo,  Abdugani Sanginov , told New Europe in an exclusive interview. “Hydropower is a renewable energy source and, in this regard, an increase in the share of hydropower in the energy balance of the Republic of Uzbekistan will help reduce the effects of climate change,” Sanginov said, adding that the technically feasible hydropower potential of Uzbekistan is estimated at 27.4 billion kWh per year and currently only 24% of this potential is used. Asked what role the EU can play in supporting renewable energy in Uzbekistan, the Uzbekhydroenergo Chairman said, “The European Union can play an important role in supporting RES in Uzbekistan by providing grants and soft loans for the dev...
