Alageum Electric to sign an office contract with KEGOC

Alageum logo 260Kazakhstan manufacturer of transformers, Alageum Electric, will sign an off-make contract (agreement on the purchase of goods not yet produced) with KEGOC. The chairman of the board of directors of the company, Yerkebulan Ilyasov, told about this on the sidelines of the power industry forum in Astana.

“This year we are launching a new production in Shymkent, in the Tassay industrial zone. It is the production of power transformers with a voltage class of 220-500 kV. Our main consumer is, of course, KEGOC, and now, as part of the import substitution program and the Samruk-Kazyna program for opening new productions, there is such a thing as signing of off take-contracts.

"There is a huge support from both Samruk-Kazyna, KEGOC in the person of the customer, and the support of the NPP is at its maximum,” he said. “The off take contract is convenient because, on the one hand, we know for the next one to three years ahead what facilities, what volume of equipment will be supplied - power transformers, autotransformers and also reactors. Now the next step will be taken from the side of Samruk - this is signing with other subsidiaries - Kazakhstan Temir Zholy, Samruk-Energo. All these subsidiaries are also interested. After signing with KEGOC, I think the next step will be these companies listed above. The volume of the contract with KEGOC, we plan about 4 billion tenge by 2022. These are four types of reactors, they are really complex, 500 kilowatts, we have never produced in Kazakhstan,” Ilyasov explained.

Commenting on the question of the capacity of the electrical equipment market in the Turkestan region, where a strategic 220-kW transmission line is planned on the way to Turkestan and three or four adjacent substations of 110 kW, the representative of Alageum noted that it can reach 4-5 billion tenge. Speaking about the negotiations on the prices of supply of transformer steel by the VIZ-Steel plant of the Russian NLMK group, which were preceded by an EEC investigation, Yerkebulan Ilyasov clarified that the issue is coming to a logical conclusion. “If we agree, we will officially announce that there are no complaints. I figured that they did not understand the pricing policy, and I think there will be no infringement on Kazakhstani buyers or other customers within the EEU,” he concluded.
