Unique experience

For the last 10 years “Promstroy-Energo” has made a long way to its development and functioning as one of the largest Kazakhstan organisations taking part in modernization and development of electric power complex and infrastructure of our country. During the whole time of its development Company succeed in completion of technically complicated projects on construction and reconstruction of power transmission lines and substations; repair, assembling and commissioning works of power equipment and also construction of fibre optic communication lines.

From its beginning Company took part in construction of strategically important electric power infrastructure objects on Kazakhstan territory. And in subsequent years “Promstroy-Energo” owing to its extensive production base, technological facilities and required experience was one of the key participants in nationally significant electric power projects aimed to solve important economic and social issues of the country:

  • Construction of new “Shu” substation of 500kV and expansion of “YUKGRES” substation of 500 kV
  • Construction of main hydrotechnical buidlings of Koksaraiskiy counterregulator on Syrdariya river
  • Construction of large power system tie substations of 500 and 200kV within the “Modernisation of National Power Network” project
  • Construction of OHTL-500kV “North Kazakhstan – Aktyubinskaya area” and “Ulke” and ‘Zhitikare” substations of 500kV
  • Construction and assembling works of external power supply of railway road “ Korgas-Zhetygen”
  • CPC expansion project – Kazakhstan section “CPC pipeline system – Adjustment. EPS” etc

Among “Promstroy-Energo” clients are major strategic companies of different economic sectors such as “Kazakhstan Electricity Grid Operating Company” JSC, “Kazakhstan Temir Zholy” National company” JSC and “ Caspian Pipeline Consortium” JSC.

“High qualified personnel, great practical experience, our business principles and a number of other important factors make the work with “Promstroy-Energo” easy.  Our clients are different companies and their projects are technically unique. Every new project is a challenge for our professional and technical potential that is why they are interesting for us because the experience we have is not only in demand but also has a potential to be increased. Along with modern technologies our experience gives us new opportunities. We are aimed at further power and industrial construction works of objects not only within Kazakhstan but also abroad” – said Director of “Promstroy-Energo” company, Aidyn Zhamanakov.

Prospects behind technologies

Generally, when talking about innovations capable of economy modernization most of all an information technology industry and not always a power industry comes to one’s mind. Partially it is associated with a high level of power sector persistence due to its high level of capital capacity which in turn prevents quick change of a technological base. At the same time it is not a reason to think innovation renewal of a power sector is low or not enough to cover country’s economy growing needs. The prove of it are new technologies applied today in modernization of national power system of Kazakhstan. New technologies and new highly effective main and additional equipment are incorporated during the expansion of Interregional Power System and during the change of old equipment. Equipment and network shall be constantly renewed and this is one of main priorities of electric power infrastructure development.

So, “Promstroy-Energo” being one of the system operator leading partners of the unified electric power system of Kazakhstan “KEGOC” JSC carries out works on development of innovation technologies and successfully applies them for a long period of time. “We are based on two arrays of development in our work. The first one is adaptation of world leading technologies to Kazakhstan conditions and characteristics. The second one is development and integration of our own technologies. Complicated tasks beyond our company require quality and effective solving which is only possible with application of new innovations. So we do not have the other choice. Besides, we have to constantly upgrade our production capacities, improve our practice skills supplementing it with new methods and technologies and invaluable experience” has mentioned Aidyn Zhamanakov.

The example of “Promstroy-Energo” unique works are installation of a three phased phase shifted transformer at a power transmission line “North Kazakhstan – Aktyubinskaya area” implementing purposed crossover regulation of voltage changing the angle between voltage vectors at the ends of transmission line increasing thus power capacity regardless of “shunting” path parameters. Power equipment of such a type was registered in the CIS for the first time.

“It is worth to mention we are ready to use additional means for modernization of our production capacity as our company is aimed at quality as well as compliance with required standards and regulations – points out mister Zhamanakov.

Today “Promstroy-Energo’ company has three management system certificates:

  • Certificate on RoK ST ISO 9001-2001 “Quality management system:
  • Certificate on  RoK ST OHSAS 18001-2008 ‘Professional safety and health management system”
  • Certificate on RoK ST ISO 14001-2006 “Environmental management system”

Successful completion of major power complex projects indicates for “Promstroy-Energo” technical capability compliance and certificates availability shows company compliance with quality standards of both state and international level.

Technologies, significance of power resources and ways of production organization change; however, our lives were and keep being associated with reliable and quality power supply. The role of an electric power industry and electric power companies is very important as they impact on further economic development of our country. As for the “Promstroy-Energo” it is worth noting a quality development process: company is confident in its future, expanding dynamically its production capacity, improving management and increasing its personnel qualification which would get the company to a new and higher level.
