Energy Policy Brief: Turkmenistan
The country faces challenges in balancing power demand and supply due to its rigid energy system. Strengthening regional energy integration and enabling multilateral energy
Uzbekistan remains one of the most energy-intensive economies in the world. Energy use is largely based on fossil fuels, although the country has significant RE potential in solar and wind. Natural gas makes up to 83 percent of total primary energy consumption and more than 80 percent of the electricity mix.
Thermal Power Plants JSC, Main Electric Networks of Uzbekistan JSC and Regional Electric Networks JSC are jointly responsible for the design, construction, installation and commissioning works in conjunction with the repair and maintenance of the main equipment and accessories of power plants and grids.
7. The Project builds on the World Bank energy program in Uzbekistan by scaling up the private investment and commercial financing, diversification of power mix from domestic resources (solar), clean energy transition and decarbonization.
This new plant will have capacity equivalent to 8% of Uzbekistan's total generation capability and will be able to meet 15% of the country's overall power demand when complete.
To this end, a Presidential Resolution dated October 5, 2019, approved the Strategy for Uzbekistan's Transition to a Green Economy over the period of 2019–2030.
As a result, notwithstanding the COVID-19 pandemic, Uzbekistan has maintained an economic growth of 2.0 percent in 2020 and a further growth rebound of 7.4 percent in 2021. Economic growth in 2022 moderated to 5.7 percent led by strong remittances, consumption, and exports.
