BAKU, Azerbaijan, April 18. The key area of
cooperation in the energy sector is the “Green Corridor” project,
aimed at connecting the power systems of Central Asia with Europe
via Azerbaijan, Muzaffar Madrakhimov during a panel discussion at
the Antalya Diplomacy Forum in Türkiye, Trend reports.
“The development of renewable energy, including solar, wind, and
hydropower, as well as green hydrogen, is one of the priority areas
of regional cooperation. Ongoing and planned initiatives can
transform Uzbekistan and Central Asia as a whole into an important
energy hub of Eurasia. A key project in this area is the ‘green
energy corridor,’ aimed at linking the energy systems of Central
Asia with Europe through Azerbaijan,” he noted.
Meanwhile, in April 2025, a Memorandum of Understanding was
signed between Azerbaijan, Kazakhstan, and Uzbekistan, providing
for the possibility of expanding the “Green Energy Corridor” to
Central Asia. The implementation of this project will make it
possible to connect the region’s renewable energy resources,
primarily solar and wind energy, to the European Union’s energy
system via Azerbaijan.
