Backfeeding was performed successfully for the Bash-Karakul 500 kV line of the Bukhara wind power transmission and transformation project in Uzbekistan contracted by CEEC subsidiary CPECC North China Power Engineering Co., Ltd. in the early morning of November 13, local time.

This achievement marks the readiness of the transmission line project for operation, laying a solid foundation for the next steps in commissioning the substation and wind turbines at the Bash Wind Farm.

The Bash-Karakul line is situated deep in the heart of the Eurasian continent, in the midst of the Kyzylkum Desert. The Bash 500 kV substation serves as the central hub for the Bukhara Wind Power Project in Uzbekistan, connecting the Dzhankeldy Wind Farm and the Bash Wind Farm, and playing a crucial role in delivering clean energy to the Uzbekistan power grid.

The project team has been fully focused on addressing on-site issues, actively engaging in communication and coordination, aligning precisely with requirements, and ultimately implementing the most effective construction and commissioning plan. They have rigorously enforced safety measures and completed all necessary preparations in record time to ensure the successful backfeeding of power.

The Bukhara wind power transmission and transformation project is a key energy export project for Uzbekistan.

Upon completion, it will establish a 1-gigawatt pathway for new energy transmission, ensuring a steady flow of green energy into the Uzbek national grid. This will bolster local energy security, improve the power supply reliability for Bukhara, Navoiy, and neighboring towns, and deliver substantial overall benefits.
