Uzbakistan Project

Objectives:

• The project involved the design, construction, maintenance, and operation of a 500 MW grid connected wind power project.
• Construction of 162.5-kilometer overhead transmission line in a remote area of Bukhara region in Uzbekistan.

Services Provided:

• Provision of technical assistance using the BB2 assessment criteria of Joint MDB Methodological Framework for the Assessment of Paris Alignment and ADB’s Climate Risk Assessment Framework.
• Formulation of a comprehensive Climate Risk Assessment report following the IPCC risk assessment framework and ADB’s Climate Risk Assessment Framework. It established climate-related vulnerability and risks, identified exposure to physical climate risks, and provided climate resilient measures to improve climate risk management by all stakeholders. The report consists of the following sections:
      a. Detailed historical analysis of pervasive hazards at the project site/area along with assessing projections of the selected hazards using online tools.
      b. The exposure and vulnerability assessment of each of the project components to all prevalent hazards.
      c. A Risk Matrix that classified the risk to each component by each hazard as extreme/moderate/low based on the vulnerability and exposure     
         assessment.
      d. A comprehensive list of adaptation measures tailored for each hazard faced by each component along with a timeline for adopting these measures.
