Background
In early 2015, Tajikistan's government announced plans for a coal-fired combined heat and power plant (CHPP) in the Ayni district of Sughd province, close to the Fong-Yaghnob Coal Mine. The power plant would reportedly have a capacity of 700 to 1050 MW and operate on local coal.[6][7]
According to reporting from December 2017, Tajikistan was negotiating with China on building the Fon Yagnob power station. One media article stated that the Tajikistan government was seeking funding and a feasibility study for a 600 MW power station.[8] Another source stated that the power station would have a capacity of 700 to 1000 MW and be operated by Barqi Tojik OJSC.[9]
In December 2022, a presentation from the Ministry of Industry and New Technologies listed the Fon-Yagnob CHPP as having a capacity of 600 to 700 MW.[10]
In November 2023, a preliminary report for the UN Economic Commission for Europe said that "phased commissioning" of the power station with a total capacity of 600 MW was expected to start in 2025.[11] However as of April 2024 and April 2025, there was no further news on the project.
As of October 2025, the plant was deemed to be shelved, no news followed in December 2025 or May 2026.
Fon-Yagnob power station was not listed in the Action Plan for the Implementation of the Power Sector Development Programme for 2026–2030 of the Republic of Tajikistan, approved on November 26, 2025 (No. 648).[12]
