Chinese investors are planning to establish nearly 400 MW of coal-fired power plants in Kabul and Takhar.
In a recent meeting, Alhaj Mullah Abdul Haq Hamkar, the CEO of Da Afghan Breshna Sherkat (DABS), engaged with Mr. Luo Zongchun, the head of Chinese consortium Afghan Yuchang (AYCC), discusses investment opportunities in Afghanistan’s coal-fired power sector.
Hamkar assured investors that all necessary conditions for investment in power generation are now in place, allowing for confident participation in power generation and infrastructure projects.
The representative of the consortium Afghan Yuchang (AYCC) expressed readiness to initiate a 60MW coal-fired power project in Kabul, followed by a larger 320MW project in Takhar. He noted that the first phase, which includes the investment and commencement of the 60MW project, will take place in the capital.
Hamkar emphasized that ongoing projects to develop domestic electricity resources are poised to advance more than ever before. Current initiatives are expected to significantly contribute to the country’s electricity requirements, facilitating industry and trade development.
