Nurek Dam: Tajikistan's energy jewel
Located on the Vakhsh River in southern Tajikistan, about 75 kilometers from the capital city of Dushanbe, the Nurek Dam is one of the most important hydraulic hub projects in the country and even in Central Asia. As one of the world's tallest earth and stone dams, its dam height is 300 meters, the length of the top of the dam up to 700 meters, the total water storage capacity of 10.5 billion cubic meters. With a total installed capacity of 3,000 megawatts (MW), the hydropower plant provides more than 90% of Tajikistan's electricity supply, and also serves the comprehensive functions of irrigation and flood control, which is of irreplaceable strategic significance for local economic development and energy security. The construction of the Nurek Dam has fully demonstrated Tajikistan's capability in the development of water resources and has become an important landmark project in the country.
