The project plans to include $10 million in local content — equivalent to 20% of the total project value — incorporating Uzbek-made products, services, technologies, and workforce. 

Additionally, the project aims to use local raw materials for 28% of its production, amounting to $14 million. Once operational, the facility is expected to fully cover $82 million worth of Uzbekistan’s wind turbine blade imports.

The facility is slated to open on December 20, 2025. According to the company’s director, the new plant will not only serve the Uzbek market but will also aim to meet the needs of the wider Central Asian market. The director noted that the large size of wind turbine blades requires substantial production and storage space, which has been factored into the project design.
