Cengiz Energji Sirdaryo power station is a 220 MW gas power station in Sirdaryo, Uzbekistan. It is operated by Cengiz Enerji Sanayii ve Ticaret AŞ [100%]. Based on its capacity (estimated), it can supply roughly 248k homes (estimated). It ranks #17 of 28 Uzbekistan power plants by installed capacity. Commissioned in 2022, it is around 4 years old — recently built. In context, gas supplies about 72.3% of Uzbekistan's electricity; the national grid averages 1,000 gCO₂/kWh (19.4% low-carbon) (2025).

At 220 MW, Cengiz Energji Sirdaryo power station is below the median gas plant in Uzbekistan (450 MW). Technically it is described as Engine. Gas plants burn natural gas either in open-cycle turbines for fast peaking, or in combined-cycle units that recover exhaust heat in an HRSG to reach roughly 55–62% efficiency — the cleanest-burning fossil option.

This gas plant burns natural gas in a turbine — often in a combined-cycle setup — to generate electricity. It sits in a hot-summer Mediterranean climate (Köppen Csa) — Northern Hemisphere, latitude 40.3°N — which shapes how much energy it can produce and how its output varies through the year.
Climate zone & typical temperatures: Köppen-Geiger world climate classification (Kottek et al. 2006, 0.5° grid).
For a plant’s outdoor hardware — heat-recovery steam generators (HRSG), expansion joints, valves, flanges and their insulation — the local climate sets how fast unprotected steel and coatings degrade. This site sits in a mild atmospheric environment (estimated ISO 9223 class C2 — Low), with thermal cycling the leading environmental stress.
Higher environmental severity is exactly where protective removable insulation pays back most: a sheltered micro-climate slows corrosion, UV and thermal-cycling damage and extends outdoor hardware service life. This is an indicative site-climate context — not a condition assessment of any specific plant or operator.
Indicative estimate via the ISO 9223:2012 informative method (atmospheric corrosivity from temperature, time-of-wetness and airborne salinity), using WorldClim climate normals, the Köppen-Geiger class and coast distance. Indicative, not a measured corrosion rate.
The #12 largest gas power plant of 17 in Uzbekistan by capacity.
Uzbekistan has 17 gas power plants in this dataset, together about 13,640 MW of capacity.
