Background on Plant

The Angren power station is owned by state joint stock company Uzbekenergo. The power station originally consisted of eight units totaling 484 MW. The first unit was commissioned in 1957, and the eighth in 1968. In September 2012, Uzbekenergo signed a contract with China's Harbin Electric International Company for construction of a 130 to 150 MW unit, planned for operation in 2016. Total project cost is US$242.6 million, financed by Uzbekenergo (US$75.1 million) and a loan from the Chinese Ex-Im Bank (US$165.6 million).[1] The new unit will replace the first four units of the plant.[2]
