Mega solar power plant in Khushight Khundii
The OEM announced completion of its latest solar plant which is located near New Ulaanbaatar International Airport, Mongolia.
Sharp Energy Solutions Corporation announced the completion of a mega solar power plant in Khushight Khundii, Sergelen district, Tuv province, Mongolia with partners including renewable energy company Sermsang Power Corporation*2 and Tenuun Gerel Construction LLC.
The power plant is located approximately 14 km southwest of the New Ulaanbaatar International Airport, which is currently under construction. Plans are to supply the electricity generated by the power plant to the central grid system which connected also capital of Ulaanbaatar and the new airport.
Sharp explained that the longer the distance between a power plant and the facilities it is supplying, the greater the electricity loss. However, this new power plant will be able to efficiently supply electricity to the new airport and urban parts of Ulaanbaatar, areas predicted to see rising electricity consumption.
The powerplant became operation mid June 2019.
This announcement followed the earlier announcement of the completion of a mega solar power plant in Quang Ngai Province, Vietnam. This project was a collaboration with multiple partners, including Sermsang Power Corporation (SSP) of Thailand, and SSP affiliate Truong Than Quang Ngai Power and High Technology Joint Stock Company. Operations at this new mega plant started in early June.
