Chakan GES Modernization
The Project is to finance the reconstruction and rehabilitation of small hydro power plant (“HPP”) units owned by Chakan GES, a local power plant operation with a total installed capacity of 38.5 MW, fully-owned subsidiary of the Kyrgyz Republic.
The project is aimed to utilize the full potential of the HPP units that would increase the electricity output and support mitigating the hydrology risk.
The Project will contribute to the efforts in solving the long-lasting operational issues in the aged and inefficient HPP infrastructure through the rehabilitation program. Modernization of renewable energy sources will result in a more resilient power sector in the country, ensuring a more reliable power supply.

Climate Resilient Water Services Project (P173734)
The project development objective is to (i) increase access to climate-resilient water services in selected river basins, and (ii) strengthen institutional capacities for climate-resilient water management at the local and national levels. The project will improve the coverage and quality of WSS and I&D services in selected basins. At the national level, the project will increase institutional capacities for climate-resilient water management. With regards to the first part of the PDO, climate resilient water services are defined as water services that achieve coverage and quality standards despite possible climate risks (droughts, high temperature and extreme heat, urban flooding and sewerage overflows, floods, and mudflows). With regard to the second part of the PDO, climate-resilient water management is defined as the ability of water sector institutions at the local and national levels to prepare for disruptions and recover from shocks related to climate risks.
