TASHKENT, Uzbekistan, February 16. Uzbekistan
is establishing a $60 million high-voltage cable production project
with Belarusian company Energokomplekt under the Enco Group brand,
Trend reports via the
press service of the Uzbek president.
The initiative was highlighted during President Shavkat
Mirziyoyev’s visit to the Akhangaran district of the Tashkent
region, where he inspected the enterprise.
The project is unfolding in two distinct stages. Once
operational, the plant is anticipated to generate an impressive
25,000 tons of products each year, with export potential soaring to
$300 million.
The initial phase of construction is approaching completion, with
an impressive 98% of the work done and over $10 million in
investments already put to use. The company is set to expand its
reach by exporting products to Germany, Latvia, Estonia, and
Bulgaria, along with CIS countries, projecting annual exports to be
around $140 million.
Meanwhile, Uzbekistan imported high-voltage cable products and
insulated copper busbars worth about $400 million last year. Once
the facility reaches full capacity, it will enable the production
of import-substituting goods valued at $150 million, helping reduce
reliance on foreign supplies and supporting the country’s
industrial development goals.
