Employees celebrate the grid connection of the Khromtau Wind Power Project.
The first wind turbine of the 150-Megawatt Khromtau Wind Power Project in Kazakhstan, constructed by POWERCHINA, was recently connected to the grid 32 days ahead of schedule. The owner highly recognized this achievement.
Due to its high latitude, the project in northwestern Kazakhstan, located in the Aktobe Region, faces harsh winter conditions, which pose significant challenges to construction. POWERCHINA effectively utilized progress management tools, ensured comprehensive control over subcontractors' labor and material logistics, and efficiently coordinated construction resources. Winter-specific construction measures were implemented to ensure steady progress while maintaining safety and quality standards.
The project features 24 wind turbines, each with a capacity of 6.25 MW, a hub height of 105 meters, and a rotor diameter of 171 meters. This project marks POWERCHINA's third wind power EPC project in Kazakhstan, following the Zhanatas Wind Power Project and Shelek Wind Power Project, which has accumulated a lot of experience in local operation.
