Progress of Feasibility Study

Site Selection - Candidates for FT & Demonstration, Super Grid in Gobi desert

Analysis of Status - Technologies, Transmission

On-site Survey - Meteorological, Geological & Topographical survey

Basic Design - Lay out of FT & Demonstration site for the next stage

Expectations -Technology, Economy, Socio-Environment

Candidate Sites for Demonstration & Construction

Site #1: 42°38'54.84“N/107°18'7.82"E (Umnugovi province, Khanbogd Soum) Site #2: 44°28'4.98“N/111° 7'9.07"E (Dornogovi province, ErdeneSoum) Site #3: 46°22'8.54“N/108°22'16.32"E (Govisumber province, Choir Soum)
