On December 29, the Tashkent Chirchiq Energy Storage Project in Uzbekistan funded and developed by China Energy Overseas Investment Co., Ltd. achieved full-capacity grid connection. This milestone marks that the first independent grid-side energy storage project in Uzbekistan’s capital has officially advanced to the preparation for commercial operation, bearing great significance to enhancing local grid security and stability.

With an installed capacity of 100 MW/200 MWh, the project is expected to generate up to 1.5 billion kWh of electric load regulation capacity for the grid in Tashkent. Upon completion, the project can effectively mitigate the instability of new energy power generation, dramatically enhance the stability and reliability of the regional grid, and vigorously facilitate the transformation of the energy mix and green, sustainable development in the capital region of the country.
