Ulaanbaatar, September 30, 2025 /MONTSAME/. Within the framework of the 24 mega projects for the development of the Capital city, the Emeelt Eco Industrial Park will be built on 539 hectares in Shar Khuvyn Khooloi, Khan-Uul District, about 30 km from the city center.
A new 24 MW thermal power plant will be constructed to supply the park with electricity, heat, process steam, and hot water. According to the Public Relations and Information Division of the Governor’s Office of Ulaanbaatar City, the design of the power plant will be completed this year, with construction scheduled to commence in 2026 and be commissioned within two years.
The plant will be equipped with two low-temperature circulating fluidized bed boilers with a steam capacity of 110–130 tons per hour, two 12 MW PT-type steam turbine generators, and auxiliary equipment. To ensure stable and reliable operation, the station will operate in parallel with the central power grid. It is planned to consume 199,000–205,000 tons of coal annually, generating 156 million kWh of electricity and 265,600 Gcal of heat energy, thus meeting the energy needs of the Emeelt Eco Industrial Park and creating 185 permanent jobs.
Compared to other plants, the new thermal power station will feature complete fuel combustion, lower air pollution, environmentally friendly technology, and a modern automated control system. In addition, heating, hot and potable water pipelines, as well as power and telecommunication networks of the park, will be installed within an underground utility tunnel.
