The economy of any country is purely dependent on the availability of Energy and Natural Resources. Electricity is today’s driving force for any industry to survive and Power generation is one of the most important necessities that adds to the growth and economy of the Country. Further, it is much better if that Energy is Clean and Green.
Kyrgyzstan boasts itself with Clean and Green Energy, With Generating Electricity by means of Hydro and Solar, the country encourages the worldwide trend in the transition to clean energy sources. With many large and medium-sized rivers flowing within the country it provides significant opportunities for Hydro-Electric generation, With many plains and mountainous regions, Kyrgyzstan becomes a potential space to generate Renewable Energy by means of Solar and Wind.
Currently, the country has the potential to generate more than 140 billion kW/hr in just Hydropower energy alone. While the potential is large, the country is not making the most of its endowments and its energy potential and currently generates only 10% of it. For Kyrgyzstan Energy generation is not just for itself, it is also a revenue-generating economy as the country exports energy. Many of its neighbours depend on this energy. Kyrgyzstan also plays an important role in the EAEU Common Energy Market. Among the CIS Countries, Kyrgyzstan stands third most hydropower generating country next to Russia and Tajikistan.
