Bulgan-Murun 110kV Transmission lines
Project objective This project connected Murun, soum residents and offices to a central, reliable power grid. Before, the government provided MNT 1.3 billion annually (on average) in subsidies to provide limited electricity to Murun city.
Date of Completion 2003-2004
Project specs 291 km Bulgan-Murun 110kV Transmission line, 6.3mW capacity 110/35/6kV substation in Murun, 110/35/10 kV substation in Murun with complete 110kV output
Project’s social and economic benefits The project connected Khuvsgul aimag center and soums to the central power grid. As a result, MNT1.3 billion in state subsidies were eliminated from the government budget. Having a reliable source of energy supports infrastructure development, manufacturing and the retail and service industries. Access to services improved across the region, leading to a rise in employment conditions and living standards.

The project has created a more attractive investment environment for further economic growth.
