If provided by the financial institution, the Early Warning System Team writes a short summary describing the purported development objective of the project and project components. Review the complete project documentation for a detailed description.

According to ADB website, ADB is helping the Kyrgyz Republic upgrade its largest power plant, Toktogul. This will involve replacing two of the four existing generator and turbine units and associated equipment at the hydroelectric plant. The project will also improve finances, governance, and management of the power sector. This project is associated with a closed ADB project: Toktogul Rehabilitation Project Phase 2 (ADB-46348-001).

The project will (i) continue the phased rehabilitation of Toktogul hydroelectric power plant (HPP) by replacing two of the four existing generator and turbine units and associated auxiliary equipment; (ii) implement a business process improvement project for the main generation company, open joint-stock company Electric Power Plants (EPP); (iii) prepare an asset inventory and revaluation for the seven power companies, and Bishkekteploset (heat and hot water distribution company); and (iv) prepare a power sector master plan to include a due diligence study for the rehabilitation of Uch Kurgan HPP. The project will increase domestic energy supply and international electricity trade, improve asset management and sector planning, and strengthen sector operational performance.

ACCOUNTABILITY MECHANISM OF ADB

The Accountability Mechanism is an independent complaint mechanism and fact-finding body for people who believe they are likely to be, or have been, adversely affected by an Asian Development Bank-financed project. If you submit a complaint to the Accountability Mechanism, they may investigate to assess whether the Asian Development Bank is following its own policies and procedures for preventing harm to people or the environment. You can learn more about the Accountability Mechanism and how to file a complaint at: http://www.adb.org/site/accountability-mechanism/main
