Within the framework of Bakhvi HPP’s video storytelling series, we present a feature offering an inside look at the standards, dedication, and enthusiasm with which the Bakhvi HPP project is being developed. The video showcases the people behind the project and the commitment that has driven its implementation from the very beginning.
The Bakhvi HPP project comprises three medium- and small-scale hydropower plants—Bakhvi 1, Bakhvi 2A, and Bakhvi 2B. The project is being implemented in the Bakhvistskali River Valley, within the territory of the Ozurgeti Municipality. The construction period spans 2021–2026. Of the total workforce employed during construction, 37% were local residents, of whom 34% were women.
“The construction of Bakhvi HPP is nearing completion. Today, we can confidently say that we have delivered on our promise and, together with the local community, built hydropower plants that meet high international standards. I am certain this project will be a source of pride for everyone who has contributed to its realization, directly or indirectly. This includes not only those employed on the construction site, but also members of the Bakhvi HPP Advisory Council—individuals who generously devoted their most valuable resource, their time, to the project. Along the way, we faced challenges, but it is precisely these challenges that make the project meaningful and distinctive,” says Giorgi Abramishvili, Director of Bakhvi HPP.
