TASHKENT, Uzbekistan, April 25. A
delegation from the Nuclear Energy Agency under the Cabinet of
Ministers of Uzbekistan (Uzatom), led by Director Azim
Akhmedkhadjaev, visited the production facility of MVM EGI in
Wuzhen Province and held high-level talks with Harbin Electric
Corporation, one of China’s largest energy equipment manufacturers,
Trend reports,
citing Uzatom.
During the visit to MVM EGI — a company specializing
in the production of heat exchangers for dry cooling systems — the
delegation was introduced to the complete production cycle of heat
exchange equipment. Established in 2009, the plant spans an area of
8,500 square meters and manufactures up to 7,000 heat exchanger
assemblies annually. The equipment, originally transferred from a
production site in Hungary, is known for its high quality,
utilizing aluminum with optional stainless steel components for
specific requirements. The operational lifespan of the heat
exchangers exceeds 30 years.
The Chinese side proposed an adaptation of the cooling
system to suit Uzbekistan’s climatic conditions by integrating a
surface humidification system, which would ensure efficient cooling
performance during the hot summer months.
Following the facility visit, the Uzbek delegation met
with executives of Harbin Electric Corporation, a leading Chinese
state-owned enterprise that manufactures equipment for various
types of power plants. The discussions focused on potential
cooperation in the supply of energy equipment and the
implementation of joint energy projects.
The working visit is part of Uzbekistan’s broader
effort to strengthen international partnerships in the field of
nuclear energy. The trip also included key discussions related to
the development of the country’s first nuclear power plant.
