Construction is scheduled for completion by the third quarter of 2026. Upon completion, Western Energy System, the regional transmission and distribution operator, will own and manage the solar plant’s operations.

Interested companies can obtain tender documentation from Mongolia’s Ministry of Energy for a non-refundable fee of $600. The deadline for submitting applications is July 16, 2025.

By the end of 2024, Mongolia’s total solar capacity reached 143 MW, an increase from 108 MW the previous year, as reported by the International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA). The Myangad project aligns with the country’s ongoing commitment to advancing clean energy infrastructure.
