📋 Tender Overview
The Ministry of Innovative Development and the Regional Electric Networks JSC jointly held a Republican scientific-practical conference on Innovative development of power grid enterprises in the context of digitalization of the economy of Uzbekistan. The event was attended by international and local experts specialists scientists.The Ministry of Innovative Development and the Regional Electric Networks have established cooperation aimed at strengthening the integration of science and industry the implementation of scientific developments that will bring great economic benefits the organization of innovation-based production. The scientific-practical conference was organized to discuss innovations and digital technologies in the industry to discuss the results of research the use of innovative technologies in the supply of electricity and to study foreign experience in improving energy efficiency.Within the framework of the event the Ministry of Innovation Development of the Republic of Uzbekistan jointly with the Department of Research and Development of Network Enterprises and specialists of the Regional Electric Networks jointly implemented an innovative pilot project aimed at reducing technical losses in low voltage power grids and forming an innovative ecosystem in regional power grids. a memorandum of cooperation was signed. The results of the innovative pilot project will be used as a model for the analysis of technical losses in the 10 kV 0.4 kV network used for the supply of electricity to consumers and their further elimination in the country.At present high-voltage step-down transformers are mainly used in low-voltage power grids and each transformer supplies electricity to 50-100 consumers. At the same time the length of low-voltage 0.4 kV power lines extends for several hundred meters in some cases several kilometers leading to an increase in technical losses - the voltage drops at consumers farther away from the transformer.In the proposed project the distance from the low-power step-down transformer to the consumer does not exceed 40-50 meters. The project will reduce losses in low-voltage power grids provide quality electricity to consumers and save millions of soums a year depending on the number of consumers in the selected area the location of households and transformers.Currently the losses in the electricity network of the country are more than 10. The project proposed by the ministry is expected to reduce technical losses by up to 5 percent. At the same time the energy saved during the year is equal to the annual output of a thermal power plant with a capacity of 400 MW. In the context of electricity shortages in the country the implementation of this project is expected to be one of the practical solutions to the existing problem.
