Bishkek advances large-scale cable network modernization

Bishkek is actively modernizing its cable networks, a key component of broader reforms aimed at developing the energy sector and enhancing the reliability of electricity supply. These extensive upgrades are crucial for the capital's infrastructure.

According to the Ministry of Energy, the ongoing initiatives involve the construction and reconstruction of 10-kilovolt cable lines across various districts of the city. For the year 2026 alone, plans include the development of over 20 kilometers of these essential cable lines. This significant investment underscores a commitment to improving the city's energy infrastructure.

Currently, work is progressing on a substantial 10-kilometer segment of cable line originating from the 'Kyrgyzskaya' substation and extending to the Congress Hall. This specific project involves laying four separate cable lines, each measuring 2.5 kilometers in length. Progress is visible on Khojomkulov and Kurultay streets, indicating tangible advancement in the modernization efforts. Simultaneously, cable line installation within the Congress Hall itself has been completed.
