A new electrical substation “Gharbi” (“Western”) with a capacity of 220/110/10 kV has begun construction in the western part of Dushanbe. It will be located in the Juybodom neighborhood.
The project is being implemented by Tajemhydroelektromontazh (TGEM) — the leading company in the country for the construction of energy infrastructure, including hydropower infrastructure. As noted in TGEM’s announcement, the new substation will enhance the reliability of electricity supply in the western part of the city and reduce the load on the existing substations “Nav” and “Daryokanor”.
The project includes the construction of a modern substation with the installation of powerful equipment, including autotransformers and voltage regulation systems. Additionally, distribution devices of various voltage levels will be created, cable lines will be laid, and relay protection and automation systems will be implemented.
Moreover, all necessary auxiliary infrastructure will be established on the site — from administrative and technical premises to backup power sources.
According to experts, the implementation of the “Gharbi” project will be an important step in modernizing Dushanbe’s energy system and will ensure a more stable electricity supply for the population, businesses, and social facilities.
