POWERCHINA has effectively connected the main wind turbine of the 150 MW Khromtau Wind Power Project in Kazakhstan to the electrical grid, accomplishing this crucial milestone 32 days ahead of the scheduled timeline. This success has received praise from the project owner.
Situated in the Aktobe Region of northwestern Kazakhstan, the project contends with harsh winter conditions due to its elevated latitude, which poses significant obstacles for construction. POWERCHINA utilized advanced project management tools to ensure rigorous supervision of subcontractor workforce and materials logistics while enhancing resource coordination. Specialized winter construction techniques were adopted to guarantee smooth progress while maintaining safety and quality standards.
The project comprises 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 venture represents POWERCHINA’s third wind energy EPC project in Kazakhstan, following the Zhanatas and Shelek Wind Power Projects, thereby building upon extensive local operational expertise.
