BAKU, Azerbaijan, June 26. Kyrgyzstan is
consistently strengthening its energy independence by implementing
large-scale projects in the field of hydropower and renewable
energy sources.


This was reported by the press service of the President of
Kyrgyzstan.


This was stated by the President of Kyrgyzstan, Sadyr Japarov,
during his participation in the official capsule-laying ceremony
for the construction of the Kazarman HPP cascade in Toguz-Toro
district as part of his working visit to Jalal-Abad region.


"Kyrgyzstan is consistently strengthening its energy
independence by implementing large-scale projects in the field of
hydropower and renewable energy sources. Across the country,
construction and commissioning of small and medium-sized hydropower
plants, solar and wind power plants are underway, the
implementation of the strategic Kambar-Ata-1 HPP construction
project continues, as well as the construction of new energy
facilities in the regions," the statement said.


In his speech, the Head of State emphasized that Kyrgyzstan
possesses rich hydropower resources and is on the threshold of a
new era when this wealth should serve the country’s
development.







"Every year, hundreds of industrial enterprises are opened in
the republic, which require significant volumes of electricity. In
the future, we will have even more large plants and factories.
Hydropower plants, as well as renewable energy sources — solar and
wind energy — are intended to meet the growing electricity demand,"
the President said.


Kyrgyzstan’s continued focus on hydropower and renewable energy
development reflects the country’s efforts to address growing
electricity demand and strengthen long-term energy security. The
expansion of generation capacity is becoming increasingly important
as industrial production grows and new enterprises require reliable
electricity supplies.


The implementation of large-scale projects in hydropower,
including the Kazarman HPP cascade and the Kambar-Ata-1 project,
could become a key factor in increasing Kyrgyzstan’s domestic
energy capacity. At the same time, the development of solar and
wind power projects indicates the country’s intention to diversify
its energy sector and reduce dependence on traditional generation
sources.


Kyrgyzstan is implementing several projects aimed at developing
tourism infrastructure and supporting regional economic growth,
Minister of Construction, Architecture, Housing and Communal
Services of the Kyrgyz Republic Nurdan Oruntaev told Trend in an exclusive
interview on the sidelines of WUF13 in Baku.
