In Karakol, a new power transformer is planned to be installed at the 110/10 kV "Kun Batys" substation. According to NESK, the implementation of this project is scheduled for April 2026.
The modernization includes the following activities:
- adding a second transformer with a capacity of 10 MVA;
- installing a gas-insulated switch at 110 kV;
- mounting a complete distribution device at 10 kV with 10 vacuum switches.
Currently, one transformer with a capacity of 16 MVA is operational at the substation. After the completion of the work, the total capacity of the substation will increase to 26 MVA.
The number of electricity consumers has been steadily increasing in recent years. In 2023, the substation served about 4,400 subscribers, and now their number has increased to 4,625. This creates the need for a phased expansion of the energy infrastructure.
The implementation of the project will ensure:
- improved reliability of electricity supply;
- reduced load on existing equipment;
- provision of quality and uninterrupted electricity for consumers.
