Lesson
Construction timelines in climate-affected areas need to be reliably assessed to minimize completion delays. The construction timelines for Karamyk BCP, located at altitude of 2,300 meters above sea level, were tight. The contractor faced various issues due to the harsh weather, electricity supply interruptions, and delays with the supply of materials and equipment. Combined with the contractor’s relatively low financial capacity, this resulted in a 4-year construction period versus the originally planned 15-month implementation timeline.

Lesson
Project sustainability crucially depends on a financially sound operating agency and a tariff level and structure that ensures sufficient resources to cover costs. Without financial soundness, the risk of an unsuccessful project outcome is high. Thus, it is important to ensure that either there are cost-recovery mechanisms in place or budgetary resources are sufficiently earmarked to cover operation and maintenance expenses.
