Shymkent WWTP Capacity Extension Project

The project is to finance the Priority Investment Programme consisting of the Wastewater Treatment Plant (“WWTP”) capacity extension and the wastewater network rehabilitation. The project is expected to be a ‘trigger’ investment for the city under the Green Cities Framework 2 Window II (GrCF2 W2).
The Project (i) will generate substantive environmental benefits through reduction of local pollution and employment of the EU environmental standards; (ii) will lead to climate mitigation benefits through elimination of GHG emissions via generating electricity through the company’s existing combined heat and power (CHP) units from biogas collected from wastewater sludge.
The Project will support (i) mapping of skills in demand in the technical and greener wastewater management sector; (ii) introducing an improved learning programme for young specialists; and (iii) developing closer partnerships between the Company’s training centre and local education institutions for skills strengthening.
