Kyrgyzstan’s Deputy Energy Minister Sabyrbek Sultanbekov said the republic will build a 300 MW capacity solar power plant with support from Moscow. The contract with Russian Unigreen Energy is to be signed on March 29 in Bishkek, he said.
A solar power plant with a capacity of 300 MW will be built on 400 hectares of land in the Issyk-Kul region near the village of Toru-Aigyr
explained the official.
He added that Unigreen Energy agrees to finance the construction. This will be a joint venture in which the Kyrgyz side will be represented by Bishkek Solar. He did not specify the amount of the contract.
The agreement with the Russian company implies that Kyrgyzstan will buy electricity from this solar plant for 25 years at a price of 4.42 soms (about 5 cents) per kW.
Earlier it was reported that the involvement of Russia, Iran and Saudi Arabia on China, after more than 30 years of waiting, has finally paid off. It’s time for a confrontation between major competitors in the fight for shares of the oil market. And the Chinese government is only fanning the dispute between suppliers to gain an advantage.
