The government of Uzbekistan finalized a public-private partnership agreement today, with IFC support, for a new thermal power plant in the Syrdarya region, which will help modernize the country's power sector, reduce costs, and cut carbon emissions.
Uzbekistan's JSC National Electric Grid and Ministry of Investments and Foreign Trade signed the 25-year project agreement with a consortium comprising Electricite De France (EDF), Nebras Power Sojitz Corporation and Kyuden International. The consortium will be responsible for building and operating the 1,600-megawatt combined cycle gas turbine power plant, which is expected to be one of the most efficient thermal power plants in the country.
