KAZ: Baikonyr Solar Power Project
PRC: Eco-Industrial Park Waste-to-Energy Project
Client: Samruk-Kazyna United Green LLP
ADB Assistance: $12m loan equivalent in tenge
Key Features:
•
•
•
The project comprises the design, construction, commissioning, and
operations and maintenance of a 50 MW (direct current) ground-mounted
solar power plant and integration into the grid in southern Kazakhstan.
The main project components will include approximately 150,822 PV panels,
14 central invertor stations, and a substation.
Samruk-Kazyna United Green LLP is a joint venture between UG Energy
Limited (51%) and Samruk-Kazyna Invest LLP (SKI) (49%). UG Energy is a UK
company and part of United Green Group (UGG) while SKI is a subsidiary
owned by Samruk-Kazyna JSC, Kazakhstan's sovereign wealth fund. UGG and
SKI entered into a partnership in 2014 to develop Kazakhstan's first solar
power project, which was financed by the EBRD.
Cofinanced by EBRD.
ADB's Value Addition:
Demonstration effect by showing the viability of solar power projects in a
country with an emerging solar power sector.
ADB's long term loan is necessary for the project to achieve sound debt service
coverage levels over the life of the project and strengthen the momentum
towards long-term local currency financing of renewable energy assets.
Increase confidence among investors and lenders and promote further private
sector investment in renewable energy and power.

Client: Shanghai SUS Environment Company Limited
ADB Assistance: $100m loan equivalent in US dollars, euro, yen and yuan
Key Features:
SUS is the licensee of Hitachi Zosen Corporation's grate incineration
technology, leading equipment provider for waste-to-energy (WTE) plants, and
emerging developer of eco-industrial parks (EIPs) in PRC. EIPS aim to minimize
the loss of resources by aggregating a series of environmental protection
infrastructures such as municipal solid waste (MSW) treatment facilities,
sludge disposal facilities, kitchen waste treatment facilities, medical treatment
facilities, and sanitary landfills. MSW WTE is used as the core component of
EIPs.
ADB's loan will support the development of WTE plants in EIPs in second-and
third-tier cities in PRC, with an aggregate renewable energy generation
capacity of 60MW and MSW treatment capacity of 3,000 tons/day. The project
will also support initiatives by the government to procure state-of-the-art
technology from an experienced private sector sponsor through build-operate-
transfer WTE projects, as well as other waste facilities within EIPS.
The project will expand the low-carbon circular economy, increase livability of
cities, and tackle climate change through increased renewable energy
generation and reduction of landfill-generated methane in PRC.
ADB's Value Addition:
•
•
Promote higher industry standards through SUS's incineration technologies
that can meet stringent emissions standards.
Enhance SUS's environmental and social standards through the adoption of
international safeguards standards.
Finance a portfolio of WTE projects efficiently and economically and mobilize
local commercial banks.
