What is Uzbekistan's solar energy roadmap?

This roadmap primarily focuses on increasing solar generation in Uzbekistan's electricity mix, but also touches upon solar heat potential to reduce its dependence on fossil fuels. The roadmap aims to help Uzbekistan formulate its strategies and plans for solar energy deployment across all levels of government.

Will Uzbekistan be able to deploy solar energy by 2030?

After discussing the possible barriers to the deployment of solar energy in Uzbekistan, the report presents a roadmap for solar energy by 2030. It provides examples of international best practices in solar energy deployment from IEA member and association countries.

What is Uzbekistan's solar energy vision?

It outlines the sustainable energy environment solar energy could deliver and offers a timeline up to 2030. In this vision, Uzbekistan succeeds in maximising the benefits of solar energy capacity for both electricity and heat, making solar energy one of the country’s major energy sources.

What is solar energy potential in Uzbekistan?

The solar energy gross potential totals 2 134 x 10 3 PJ, while technical potential is estimated at411 7 PJ, which is equivalent to almost four times the country’s current primary energy consumption (Table 1). Table 1 Renewable energy source potential in Uzbekistan

How to make solar energy a key energy source in Uzbekistan?

The policy and regulatory frameworks enabling further solar energy deployment in Uzbekistan. Increasing power system flexibility to integrate the increasing amount of solar generation. Finally, the recommended actions are a co-ordinated package of measures to implement to make solar energy the key energy source in Uzbekistan in 2030 and beyond.

What is solar energy policy in Uzbekistan?

This Solar Energy Policy in Uzbekistan Roadmap is part of the EU4Energy programme, a five-year initiative funded by the European Union. EU4Energy’s aim is to support the development of evidence-based energy policy design and data capabilities in Eastern Partnership and Central Asian countries, of which Uzbekistan is a part.
