President Shavkat Mirziyoyev visited the NURA Electric plant in the Yukorichirchik district of Tashkent region, where he toured the production facilities and viewed an exhibition of finished products.

NURA Electric is a major manufacturer of high- and low-voltage electrical equipment, with a complete production cycle. Its operations help supply the energy sector with domestically manufactured products, reduce dependence on imports, and expand industrial cooperation.

The plant was built on a 20-hectare site with an investment of $50 million. It has created more than 1,000 jobs and established production of over 1,500 types of products, including 0.4–500 kV switchgear, substations, automation control cabinets for renewable energy systems, electrical busbars, and metal structures. The plant has an annual production capacity of more than 25,000 units of equipment.

The plant is equipped with modern technology, including digitally controlled machines and presses manufactured by Japan’s Amada, as well as advanced equipment from Turkish companies Durma and Teslabend. In total, the plant operates more than 120 units of such equipment.

Production and management processes are coordinated through an integrated SAP ERP digital platform. By optimizing operations and localizing the production of products and components, the company has reduced production costs by up to 10 percent.

The facility also operates an accredited testing laboratory. Its products are manufactured in accordance with international ISO standards. The enterprise is capable of organizing the complete assembly of equipment, conducting product testing in its own laboratory, and can provide round-the-clock maintenance services.

To train qualified engineering and technical personnel, the company has established cooperation with Uzenergoengineering JSC and Tashkent State Technical University. Every year, more than 100 university students complete paid industrial internships at the plant.

The President viewed an exhibition of the plant's finished products, featuring transformer substations, switchgear, and other power equipment manufactured using local raw materials and modern technologies.

He was also presented with information on the company's operations, production capacity, and plans for further development. During a conversation with the plant's employees, he asked about their working conditions and heard their opinions and suggestions.

The Head of State praised the company's production potential and product quality. He recommended expanding supplies to the domestic market, increasing exports to Central Asian countries and other foreign markets, and attracting highly qualified domestic specialists to the industry.

“We must export not only products but also engineering services. To achieve this, we need to make greater use of the potential of design organizations and testing laboratories being established in our country,” the President said.

President Shavkat Mirziyoyev also emphasized the need to expand the range and volume of spare parts and components produced, as well as the range of maintenance services offered.

He particularly stressed the importance of increasing localization in energy sector projects and instructed officials to increase the share of domestic design institutes in project development to at least 50 percent.

“We must trust domestic designers and create the necessary conditions for them. We have young specialists who have studied and gained experience abroad. By bringing qualified professionals together around them and providing them with orders, we can develop this industry,” the President emphasized.

To this end, regional branches of design institutes specializing in the energy sector will be established.
