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.
