Description
Go deeper with GlobalData
The project is being developed and currently owned by Pakhtunkhwa Energy Development Organization.
Shushghai-Zhendoli is a run-of-river project. The hydro reservoir capacity is planned to be 0.05 million cubic meter. The gross head and net head of the project will be 615m and 600m respectively. The total number of penstocks, pipes or long channels that carry water down from the hydroelectric reservoir to the turbines inside the actual power station, is expected to be 3 in number. The penstock length will be 70m. The penstock diameter will be 1.4m. The project is expected to generate 499 GWh of electricity. The project cost is expected to be around $288m.
The hydro power project consists of 3 units of pelton turbines.
The project will have 3 electric generators installed at the project site. The generator capacity is likely to be 56.7 MVA.
Development Status
The project construction is expected to commence from 2024. Subsequent to that it will enter into commercial operation by 2027.
