The private power supplier Pamir Energy has awarded a contract valued at €33.42 million to OJSC Tojik-gidroelectromontaj (TGEM) for the construction of the Sebzor hydropower plant in the Gorno Badakhshan Autonomous Region (GBAO), eastern Tajikistan. The contract, which was announced on 15 December, will cover the civil works and hydraulic steel works for the 11 MW Sebzor run-of-river scheme on the Shokhdara river, in the Roshtqala districts of Viloyati Mukhtori Kuhistoni Badakhshon. The project, which is located about 20 km southeast of the regional centre of Khorong, will include a 3.1 km-long GRP penstock, surge shafts and steel penstocks feeding into a powerhouse, which is to be equipped with three vertical Francis units with an installed capacity of about 3 x 3.7 MW and a 110 kV/35 kV switchyard. The plant is designed to generate average annual output of about 94.5 GWh, based on a net head of about 120 m and a design discharge of 10.5 m~3/s. The contracted works, which will be financed by the German Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development, through KfW Development Bank, are scheduled to be completed by the end of September 2024.
