The Syr Darya 1500MW gas-fired combined cycle power plant in Uzbekistan is the first super-large independent gas power project in Central Asia, contracted by China Energy Engineering Corporation (EPC) and adopting the world’s most advanced combined cycle technology. As the core HVAC system supplier, Aurashu tailored multiple sets of high-efficiency, energy-saving, and climate-adaptive air conditioning and ventilation solutions. These systems ensure constant temperature, humidity, and clean air in the control center, unit areas, and duty buildings throughout the year, supporting the stable, safe, and efficient operation of this landmark project.
Project Challenges
Super-large power plant with complex requirements: Strict demands for stable temperature, humidity, and air cleanliness in critical zones.
Extreme climate conditions: Winters down to -30°C, hot and dry summers with frequent sand and dust storms.
Local technology gap: Lack of mature HVAC solutions, after-sales support, and operational experience in large-scale power plants.
Energy efficiency & smart management needs: High efficiency standards and integration with modern automation systems.
Our Solution
