Bishkek, December 27 /Xinhua/ — The commissioning ceremony for a Chinese plant to generate electricity from municipal solid waste recycling took place on Saturday in Bishkek, the capital of Kyrgyzstan. More than 200 representatives from both countries attended the event.

Speaking at the ceremony, Kyrgyz President Sadyr Japarov noted that this plant, while addressing waste recycling, generates electricity and creates new jobs. "The construction of this plant will significantly improve the environmental situation in the capital and contribute to providing electricity to the population," the head of state stated.

In an interview with journalists, Bishkek Deputy Mayor Ramiz Aliyev said that the environment is one of the most important factors for people. This large and significant project will contribute to the city's fight against smog by converting waste into resources and clean energy.

The construction and operation of the plant are being financed by the Chinese high-tech company Junxin. According to Junxin Chairman Dai Daoguo, the company is committed to ensuring the safe, stable, and environmentally friendly operation of the project and will actively fulfill its social responsibilities to ensure that the development results benefit local residents.

Construction of the aforementioned plant was officially launched in August 2024. The planned total waste processing capacity of the project is 3,000 tons per day. This figure will be 1,000 tons per day in its first phase, enabling annual electricity production of 146 million kWh and a reduction of 100,000 tons of carbon dioxide emissions. The project is crucial for advancing clean solid waste incineration technologies in Central Asia and advancing the energy transition in the region.
