In the Zhetisu region, design and estimate documentation is being developed for the first reconstruction of a water intake hydroelectric complex on the Tentek River in the Alakol region in 50 years. This year it is expected to receive a state expert opinion with the subsequent start of construction and installation work.

According to the press service of the Ministry of Water Resources and Irrigation of the Republic of Kazakhstan, the reconstruction of the hydroelectric complex will increase its reliability and efficiency, reduce water losses, and ensure a stable water supply to 31 thousand hectares of farmland.

Let us recall that at the end of last month, the Ministry of Energy of Kazakhstan announced plans to purchase land as part of a project to build a cascade of three hydroelectric power stations on the Tentek River. The project is planned to be implemented within the framework of a public-private partnership (PPP). The reconstruction of the water intake hydroelectric complex on the Tentek River will most likely be carried out entirely at state expense.
