A visiting meeting of the World Bank mission was held at Bystrovskaya hydroelectric power station, which is part of Chakan HPS JSC. The press service of the Ministry of Energy reported.
As part of the project «Development of Renewable Energy in the Kyrgyz Republic», the bank allocated $4.6 million for the partial reconstruction of the station and working out of the necessary documentation, as well as $38.6 million for the construction of a small hydropower station on Tar river in Osh region.
The experts noted that since the launch of the station in 1954, its equipment has worn out, which has reduced its capacity. The reconstruction of the hydropower station will increase its efficiency by 16-18 percent, and the annual electricity generation will increase by 7.2 million kilowatt-hours.
