On December 5 local time, Uzbekistan’s Tashkent Solar Energy Storage Project, the largest electrochemical energy storage project in Central Asia, successfully achieved its first grid connection with its energy storage station. The project is EPC contracted by a consortium consisting of Energy China International, China Energy Engineering Group Zhejiang Thermal Power Construction Co., Ltd., and China Energy Engineering Group Anhui Electric Power Design Institute. This milestone signals the energy storage station’s full transition from system power reception to energized commissioning, laying a solid foundation for the project’s subsequent full-capacity grid connection.
As a key livelihood project actively promoted by the Government of Uzbekistan, the project is a core energy-supporting facility for the Tashkent New City. It also stands as a landmark achievement of CEEC in implementing the Belt and Road Initiative and deepening international cooperation in production capacity.
