Comler Power Supplies 8 Generator Sets for China-Kyrgyzstan-Uzbekistan Railway, Powering a New Belt and Road Artery
In July 2025, China Railway First Bureau Group Co., Ltd. (CRFB) procured 8 high-power diesel generator sets (including 500kW and 300kW models) from Comler Power Group for the Kyrgyzstan section of the China-Kyrgyzstan-Uzbekistan (CKU) Railway project. This bulk procurement signifies a major collaboration between the two parties on a flagship Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) project and highlights the capability of China's high-end power equipment to provide core energy security for cross-border infrastructure connectivity.
1.Project Introduction: A Key Transportation Link for Joint BRI Development
The CKU Railway is a strategic rail project jointly advanced by China, Kyrgyzstan, and Uzbekistan, serving as a landmark project under the BRI to enhance connectivity in Central Asia. Upon completion, it will significantly reduce transit times across the region, foster regional economic integration, and have profound socio-economic impacts on the countries involved. As the main contractor for a crucial section, CRFB is responsible for key constructions including tunnels, bridges, and stations, placing exceptionally high demands on the stability, reliability, and environmental adaptability of construction-phase power supply.
The 8 generator sets customized by Comler Power for this project will be deployed at multiple critical work sites, providing primary or backup power for tunnel boring, concrete pouring, camp operations, and more, ensuring uninterrupted construction under complex geographical and climatic conditions.
2.Significance of Cooperation: Validation of Strength and Collaborative Global Expansion
（1）Bulk Procurement Reflects Superior Quality:The one-time purchase of multiple high-power units demonstrates that Comler Power's products fully meet the stringent standards of international mega-infrastructure projects in terms of adaptability to extreme working conditions, fuel efficiency, and low failure rates, earning the client's high trust.
（2）Solving Power Challenges in Highland Terrain: Specifically optimized for the high-altitude, large-temperature-variability environment of the Kyrgyzstan section, Comler's units ensure no power degradation at high altitudes and reliable cold-start performance, showcasing excellent environmental adaptability and technical customization capabilities.
（3）A Model of Chinese Industrial Chain Synergy:This represents another close collaboration between "Chinese Infrastructure" (CRFB) and "Chinese Power Equipment" (Comler Power) on a major overseas project. It exemplifies the comprehensive advantages of full industrial chain integration—from engineering design and construction to equipment supply—jointly enhancing the brand value of "China Construction."
3.Extended Impact: From Energy Security to Sustainable Development Partnership
This cooperation extends beyond a simple equipment supply transaction. It establishes a strategic partnership between Comler Power and CRFB for global mega-infrastructure projects. The use of environmentally friendly generator sets complying with high emission standards also aligns with the Green BRI framework, demonstrating the shared commitment of Chinese enterprises to promoting sustainable development.
The Comler Power project lead stated, "We feel a deep sense of responsibility in providing power support for the historic CKU Railway. Our generator sets are the 'mobile power plants' ensuring project progress and also a business card for Chinese technology and quality overseas."
With the shipment and deployment of these generator sets, the construction of the CKU Railway will receive robust and reliable power support. The collaboration between Comler Power and CRFB not only energizes this modern "steel camel fleet" but also adds a new footnote to the story of Chinese technology and equipment serving global infrastructure development.
