CHP is an abbreviation for Combined Heat and Power. It is a technology that produces electricity and thermal energy at high efficiencies. Coal units track this information in the Captive Use section when known.

Background

With the support of EBRD, three units with total capacity of 450 MW will be decommissioned in 2023.[8] As of November 2023, the total installed capacity of the power station, reported on the website of Tashkent Thermal Power Plant JSC, is 1,860 MW.[9] It is unclear which units were retired.

In June 2023, Thermal Power Plant JSC and Italian credit agency SACE signed three major agreements and one memorandum for implementation of four major projects, including modernization of the Tashkent power station. It is expected that after the modernization of the plant, its capacity will increase by 990 MW. According to the memorandum, residents of Tashkent will be provided with additional heat and power through installation of combined-cycle units instead of operating simple-cycle units 1, 3, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 and 10. Based on the agreement with SACE, Italian companies will participate in the projects as contractors.[10]

In September 2023, Uzbekenergotaymir (owned by Tashkent Thermal Power Plant JSC) signed a contract for USD 60 million with General Electric Global Parts and Products for modernization of power units at power stations. The agreement was reached during the American-Uzbek business forum organized as part of the visit of President of Uzbekistan Shavkat Mirziyoyev to the United States.[11] The name of the specific project was not mentioned.

In October 2023, it was reported in the media that China National Technical Import and Export Corp. (CNTIC) will participate in the construction of new CHP power stations in Tashkent.[12] As of March 2024, there have not been any further updates about the modernization of the power station.
