The agreement will be executed over a period of 25 years and 20 years from the Commercial Operation Dates (COD) for the PV plant and BESS components respectively. Upon the completion of the agreement term, the project facilities will be handed over
Furthermore, it grants ACWA Power contractual priority for 2 GWh of new BESS capacity in Uzbekistan, enabling the company to offer competitive tariffs. It is valid for two years, with the possibility of extension by mutual agreement. Both parties will work together on feasibility studies to determine the best locations for the BESS projects.
The project will also feature a 75 MW/75 MWh Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) and an interconnection system to supply electricity to the national grid. As part of this initiative, Masdar will establish a new Plant substation and a 0.75 km underground cable will be laid to connect the new substation to the Guzar 220kV substation in the grid.

This collaboration with Uzbekistan highlights our capabilities in delivering solar PV plant and BESS on a large scale." "These 600MWac solar PV plant and 150MW/300MWh BESS projects added to our pipeline will provide financial feasibility to the Group in the coming years, supported by the favourable tariff for both the solar PV plants and BESS.
Funding secured for Uzbek BESS and solar power plant. The EBRD is to provide up to $229.4mn to Saudi''s ACWA Power to develop a 500 MWh BESS and a 200 MW solar photovoltaic (PV) power plant in Uzbekistan, reportedly the
the capacity credit it should be added with BESS to reduce intermittency in these resources. Lithium-ion battery costs have dropped below US$200 per kWh of capacity, and during the next five to seven years, costs are anticipated to drop another 50%, to US$100 per kWh.so the low cost of these BESS
In Nov 2023, Masdar has executed a Public Private Partnership Agreement (PPPA) with JSC National Electric Grid of Uzbekistan for design, build, own and operate a 300 MW solar photovoltaic power plant and 75 MWh capacity battery energy storage system in the Kashkadarya Region in the Republic of Uzbekistan.
