The Kambarata Hydroelectric Power Plant 1 is a major hydroelectric dam under construction on the Naryn River in central Kyrgyzstan. When completed, it will be the largest facility in the Kambarata cascade and one of the largest hydroelectric projects in Central Asia.
The dam is being built as a roller‑compacted concrete structure reaching 256 m in height, creating a reservoir of approximately 4.56 billion m³. The power plant will house four turbine units, totaling 1,860 MW installed capacity and projected to generate about 5.6 billion kWh annually.
