CEEC was awarded the EPC contract for each of the 500MW wind farms in Bash and Dzhankeldy on the 7th of December, 2022.
The successful installation of the first turbine on the Bash wind farm is just one of the many milestones that we are excited to mark on this project. Most importantly, the steady progress takes us closer to supporting and contributing to Uzbekistan’s long-term ambitions to increase the share of renewables in their energy mix.
