2. Structure of Mongolian energy sector
Mongolia has four main energy systems:• Central Energy System (CES),• Western Energy System (WES),• Altai- Uliastai Energy System (AUES), and• Eastern Energy System (EES), comprising Seven thermal
power plants with heat extraction (combined heat and powerplants), Durgun and Taishir hydro power plants, Salkhit wind
power plant, Altai-Uliastai’s diesel generators, small
renewable energy resources (solar and wind) and seven
distribution systems.

3.Current situation of Mongolian energy sector
The majority of our heating and electrical energy is being generated by coal
fired thermal power plants and the remaining small amount is from hydro, wind, solarand diesel stations.

5. Possibilities for further cooperation
There is a wide opportunity to cooperate in the renewable energy sector.
• Rich resources of Solar, Wind and Hydro in Mongolia:– Solar: 270-300 sunny days in a year, 4.3-4.7 kWh/meter or higher per day– Wind: 10 % of the total land area can be classified as excellent for utility scale
applications, Power density 400-600 W/m2, the resource could potentially supply over
1100 GW of installed capacity.
– Hydro: Theoretical potential 6.2 GW, more than 1 GW of these has been identified
