Ulaanbaatar, October 30, 2025 /MONTSAME/. Plans are underway to establish key institutions in Hunnu City, including government offices, a free economic zone, universities, a student campus, and integrated transport and logistics facilities.
According to the Governor’s Office
of the Capital City Ulaanbaatar, electrical and infrastructure works are
progressing as part of this initiative. The “Hunnu” substation is designed to
supply electricity to new developments and future buildings within the administrative
zone of the city.
The project includes a 110kV overhead
power line, a 2x40 MVA 110/35/10 kV “Hunnu” substation, a control building,
three enclosed 10 kV distribution units (RP-1, RP-2, RP-3), and a 10kV
transmission cable network. Construction and installation are being carried out
by Da Khot LLC and Concept Capital Solutions LLC, with progress currently at 84
percent.
Under the long-term development
strategy “Vision 2050,” Hunnu City is envisioned as Mongolia’s principal
transport and logistics hub, strategically centered around Chinggis Khaan
International Airport in the Khushig Valley. The city is also expected to
evolve into a unified air passenger gateway for Northeast Asia.
Project initiators anticipate that
Hunnu City will ease congestion in Ulaanbaatar and contribute to national
economic growth by 10-15 percent. The development of the Bogd Khaan Railway, a
free economic zone, and an integrated transport and logistics center will
support this goal.
On June 5, 2024, the Parliament of Mongolia adopted the Law on the Legal Status
of Hunnu City, officially designating it as a satellite city of Ulaanbaatar
with strategic functions. The law establishes Hunnu City’s special
administrative structure, economic framework, and governance model and mandates
integrated development with Tuv aimag to generate shared economic benefits.
