Japan Grant to Support Power Grid Reliability www.montsame.mn
The Project for the Provision of Equipment to Support the Reliability of the Power Grid will be implemented with a non-refundable grant of JPY 500 million (approximately USD 3.14 million) provided by the Government of Japan.
Under the project, critically needed equipment to ensure the reliability of power grid infrastructure will be supplied to the National Power Transmission Grid SOE and the National Dispatching Center SOE. Specifically, the equipment will include a mobile transformer testing vehicle and a fully digital real-time power system simulator, among other essential equipment. The project will be implemented through the Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA).
To formalize the project, Deputy Minister of Finance Khulan Bat-Erdene signed the Exchange of Notes with Ambassador of Japan to Mongolia Igawahara Masaru, and the Grant Agreement with Chief Representative of the JICA Mongolia Office Miyagi Kensuke.
Deputy Minister Khulan emphasized that the implementation of the project will contribute to the stabilization of Mongolia’s power supply, strengthening the sustainable operation and maintenance capacity of the power grid infrastructure, and enhancing national energy security.
Ambassador Igawahara stated, “This project will help address equipment-related issues of previously implemented projects. It will also contribute to ensuring the stability of Mongolia’s power grid infrastructure, strengthening maintenance capacity, and ultimately creating a foundation for introducing renewable energy and advancing the energy transition.”
Currently, Mongolia produces about 80 percent of its electricity domestically and imports around 20 percent to meet demand.
