In Uzbekistan, Voltalia wins 123-megawatt Uch-Uchak solar project
Voltalia (Euronext Paris, ISIN code:
FR0011995588), an international player in renewable
energy, expands in
Uzbekistan.
In July 2022 Voltalia entered a tender,
sponsored by the World Bank through the IFC Scaling Solar Program,
for a new solar plant in Uch-Uchak in the Khorezm region of
Uzbekistan. Voltalia has been notified by the Government of
Uzbekistan that it has submitted the winning bid for this new
123-megawatt plant (100 megawatts AC).
The proposed site is located near the Turkmen
border in the western Uzbek province of Khorezm, around 150
kilometres southeast from the provincial capital Urgentch and
around 900 kilometres west of the nation’s capital Tashkent.
The solar plant will use the latest available technology, with high
performance bi-facial panels mounted on trackers. With
commissioning scheduled for 2024, the contract will include the
design, construction, financing, ownership, operation and
maintenance of the power plant and the design, financing and
construction of the purchaser interconnection facilities.
This investment will be financed by project debt
and will be supported by the leading development finance
institutions in the region. Uzbekistan’s renewables deployment plan
targets the development of 12 gigawatts of solar and wind capacity
by 2030 and this investment in Khorezm will contribute to reaching
the ambitious targets set by the Uzbek government.
“Following the signing of an innovative
partnership agreement with the Government of Uzbekistan in
November, we are extremely pleased to have won this 123-megawatt
solar tender today. Uzbekistan will be one of Voltalia’s key
markets going forward and we are proud to support the country in
reaching its ambitious 2030 targets, substantially increasing the
country’s renewable electricity production and its energy
independence” said Sébastien Clerc, CEO of Voltalia.
