The Üch-Korgon Hydro Power Plant (Kyrgyz: Үч-Коргон ГЭСи, Russian: Уч-Курганская ГЭС) is an active hydroelectric plant on the river Naryn in Shamaldy-Say, Kyrgyzstan, upstream from Uchqoʻrgʻon in Uzbekistan. Completed in 1962, it is the oldest of the three hydroelectric plants on the river Naryn near Tash-Kömür, 25 km downstream from the Shamaldy-Say Hydroelectric Power Station.[1] It has 4 individual turbines with a nominal output of around 45 MW and a total nominal capacity of 180 MW.[1] The power plant's dam is 34 m (112 ft) tall and it creates a 53,000,000 m3 (42,968 acre⋅ft) reservoir of which20,000,000 m3 (16,214 acre⋅ft) is active (or useful) for power generation.[2]
