A third gas-fired unit planned at a power plant in Uzbekistan will use equipment from Mitsubishi Power, the company announced on Feb. 13.
Mitsubishi said the 600-MW Navoi 3 facility is expected to come online in 2026. The plant will supply both electricity and industrial steam and district heating for the Navoi Free Economic Zone around Navoi, located about 220 miles southwest of the capital of Tashkent. The Navoi Power Plant is operated by JSC Thermal Power Plants, the state-owned electric power cooperation of the Republic of Uzbekistan.
