August 26th 2024

John Cockerill has been entrusted by SEPCOIII with the design and supply of two large recovery boilers. They will be installed behind Siemens 9000H-L turbines at the huge 1600 MW greenfield combined cycle power plant in Surkhandarya, Uzbekistan, owned by Quvvat LLC.

The John Cockerill triple pressure + reheat heat recovery steam generators will be constructed with four-wide bundles and will comply with the country’s regulations, carrying the UZ stamp.

Advanced gas-fired power generation technology will be used to maximize energy efficiency and reduce carbon emissions, contributing to address electricity demand in Uzbekistan and support the energy transition in the country.

Developed by Stone City Energy, the Surkhandarya power station will be the first of its kind in Uzbekistan to implement the latest generation of H-Class gas turbines and will be producing annually 12 billion kWh of power for almost 3.5 million households

John Cockerill is proud to contribute to facilitating access to energy, ensuring grid stability and reliable power supply in the country. Once the Surkhandarya power plant is in operation, 5 heat recovery steam generators with the John Cockerill technology will be installed in Uzbekistan.
