The two sides are engaging in discussions on two major projects: the Ayni 160MW hydropower station and the Yavan 100MW hydropower station.

As Tajikistan continues to develop its hydropower resources and enhance energy supply capacity, Chinese enterprises are actively exploring engineering construction and cooperation opportunities in Central Asia's clean energy market.

Focus on Two Hydropower Projects, New Progress in China-Tajikistan Energy Cooperation

On July 24, Tajikistan's Minister of Energy and Water Resources, Daler Juma, met with representatives of China Gezhouba Group International Engineering Co., Ltd. in Dushanbe to discuss expanding cooperation in the energy sector.

According to a statement from Tajikistan's Ministry of Energy and Water Resources, the meeting focused on plans for two hydropower projects. These include the 160MW Ayni hydropower station project located in the Zarafshan River basin and the 100MW Yavan hydropower station project.

Hydropower Development Becomes a Key Focus of Tajikistan's Energy Strategy

In recent years, Tajikistan has actively attracted international enterprises to participate in large-scale energy projects, aiming to accelerate the commercial development of hydropower resources by introducing advanced technology, engineering expertise, and capital.

The advancement of the Ayni and Yavan hydropower projects aligns with Tajikistan's development direction of expanding clean energy capacity and optimizing its energy structure.

These hydropower projects will not only meet the growing domestic electricity demand but also enhance regional power interconnection capabilities, providing new support for energy cooperation in Central Asia.

Gezhouba Continues to Expand Overseas Energy Infrastructure Layout

In recent years, Chinese enterprises have actively participated in the construction of transportation, power, and energy infrastructure in Central Asia, expanding regional markets through engineering contracting, technical services, and project investment.

For Gezhouba, Tajikistan's hydropower market offers resource advantages and development potential.

By participating in the Ayni and Yavan hydropower projects, the company is expected to further expand its business coverage in Central Asia's clean energy sector and promote the application of Chinese hydropower technology and engineering expertise in overseas markets.

The cooperation between China and Tajikistan on hydropower projects will also further deepen the industrial ties between the two countries in the green energy sector.
