2024-11-08China National Electric Engineering Co (CNEEC), a subsidiary of Sinomach, has reached a major milestone in the transformation of Kyrgyzstan's Üch-Korgon hydro power plant as the #4 unit's runner, main shaft and support cover were successfully hoisted into place. This follows the earlier stator lifting and marks the transition of the turbine into its final assembly phase.

The "three-body joint hoisting" is technically the most demanding and high-risk stage in the installation of an axial flow unit. Through meticulous planning and rigorous execution, CNEEC's project team ensured the entire operation was conducted safely and with precision.
Üch-Korgon hydro power plant, Kyrgyzstan's first hydro power plant, is vital for the nation's development and its efforts to raise the living standards locally. The project entails an upgrade of the existing 4×45 MW axial flow units to a capacity of 4×56 MW, along with essential restoration work to enhance performance and reliability.
