“When communication and control systems operate stably, the entire station feels confident and orderly”

In the energy sector, there are professions that are not always visible to the outside world, but it is precisely these professions that create a sense of reliability and stability. Imanbay Mukhan Aikhanuly, lead engineer of the dispatch technological control systems at the A.Zhakutov CHPP-2, is one of those specialists who ensure that the complex technological organism of the station operates accurately, smoothly and without failures.

His area of responsibility is dispatch control, communications and IT infrastructure systems, without which it is impossible to imagine a modern thermal power plant.

“Dispatch, electronic and IT systems are a kind of nervous system for the plant. Their stable operation is essential for the timely management of processes and the safety of personnel”, says Mukan Aikhanuly.

His interest in electronics, automation and telecommunications determined his career path. Working at Almaty CHPP-2 gave him the opportunity to apply his technical knowledge in real, responsible conditions, where every mistake can have serious consequences, and every correct measure taken can prevent an emergency situation.

In his daily work, he is involved in the maintenance and diagnostics of electronic equipment, dispatch systems, technological telephony and the station’s IT infrastructure. This work requires high concentration, systematic thinking and constant readiness for non-standard tasks.

Mukan Aikhanuly attaches particular importance to teamwork in his work:

The people who work at Almaty CHPP-2 are highly experienced and take a responsible approach to their work. Here, you can always count on support, advice and teamwork.

He believes that it is this combination of professionalism, discipline and mutual respect that is one of the key factors in the reliable operation of the station.

The modern energy sector is changing rapidly. Digitalization, automation and the development of communication systems are becoming an integral part of the industry. According to Mukana Aikhanuly, without sustainable IT solutions and reliable dispatch communication, it is impossible to ensure the efficient and safe operation of a power plant.

“Technology is evolving, and our task is to ensure its smooth integration into production processes”, he emphasizes.

Imanbay Mukan Aikhanuly considers the profession of energy engineer to be one of the most important:

Energy means stability for the city and the country. We work to ensure that people receive heat and electricity without interruption, regardless of the season or conditions.

In his work, he adheres to simple but fundamental principles: responsibility, accuracy and discipline.

Communication and control must work without fail’ is not just a motto for him, but a daily professional standard.

It is precisely the calm, measured and reliable work of specialists such as Imanbay Mukan Aikhanuly that shapes the stability of the CHPP-2 named after A.Zhakutov and the confidence that the plant operates as a single, reliable mechanism.

In January, a new stage in life begins for Mukan Aikhanuly – he is taking a well-deserved rest. He has 38 years of continuous service in the energy sector behind him – years of responsibility, precise decisions and daily reliable work, on which the stability of complex production processes depended.

This is the path of a man who has walked it honestly and consistently, maintaining respect for his profession, loyalty to his principles and a sincere attitude to his work. His experience, calmness and professional precision have become an important part of the history of Almaty CHPP-2, and his contribution is a solid foundation for those who continue the work today.

For such specialists, retirement is not an end point, but a natural conclusion to a long professional career. The work of Imanbay Mukana Aikhanuly remains in the system, in the people and in the reliability with which the station operates. The staff of Almaty CHPP-2 are sincerely grateful for his many years of work, for his professionalism, responsibility and worthy example of service to the energy sector.
