3rd Uzbek Solar project announced for Uzbekistan
Uzbekistan's Ministry of Energy has revealed that the launch of the 3rd solar photovoltaic PPP project, under the Uzbek Solar name. The move remains in line with its Concept Note for guaranteeing electricity supply in Uzbekistan in 2020-2030 and also its large-scale renewable resource method program in Q1 2021. The project belongs to the 1GW solar programme mandate of International Finance Corporation (IFC). The plan is prepared for to consist of three whole lots with a complete ability of 500MW to be tendered out for the exclusive companions under DFBOM model. One of the whole lots will certainly additionally include a battery storage space element. Minister of Energy of Uzbekistan Alisher Sultanov stated: "Following the success of Uzbek Solar 1 and also high interest in Uzbek Solar 2, we enjoy to announce that the begin of this brand-new project is planned for the February 2021, which shows that we are strongly on our method to new, lasting, clean and also varied power production in Uzbekistan. " We wish to say thanks to the IFC for their support as lead consultant in structuring and also tendering of approximately 500MW solar PV projects in the Bukhara, Namangan and also Khorazm areas."

Uzbekistan launches rebate program for rooftop PV
Uzbekistan’s Ministry of Energy has introduced provisions to support rooftop PV, solar heaters and energy-efficient gas burners.   The program will grant homeowners a 30% rebate of the initial cost of buying and deploying a PV system up to UZS3 million ($318). For solar heaters and gas burners, the maximum grants will be UZS1.5 million UZS200,000, respectively.   The new regime will also grant compensation to rooftop system buyers to cover the interest cost of loans taken from commercial banks to purchase arrays.   The rules exempt businesses and homeowners from paying property tax on installations and also waive land tax for systems with a generation capacity no larger than 100 kW for ten years after commissioning. For off-grid projects, exemption from land tax will be granted for three years.   From 4 MW to 1 GW   The program is part of the government’s plan to ensure a quarter of the electricity generated comes from renewables by 2030. Uzbekistan wants to develop large scale solar plants with a combined capacity of 1 GW with the support of the International Finance Corporation, the private finance arm of the World Bank Group.   The nation currently has only a 100 MW solar project under development, in the Navoi region. That facility was tendered by state-owned energy company Uzbekenergo JSC in February. Canadian solar developer SkyPower Global is planning 1 GW of large scale PV plant capacity in the regions of Tashkent, Samarkand, Navoi, Jizzakh, Surkhandarya and Kashkadarya.   According to the latest statistics published by the International Renewable Energy Agency, Uzbekistan had installed PV capacity of only 4 MW at the end of last year.

The solar photovoltaic or pv plant, Uzbekistan's initial utility-scale solar project, is a landmark achievement, and is promptly adding to Uzbekistan's renewable resource base. When totally functional, it will generate adequate power for 31,000 homes and save 160,000 tonnes of CO2 exhausts yearly. " In the next five years, we prepare to boost our economy's development rate by 1.5 times, and bring GDP to at least $100 billion," Mirziyoyev said. "Hundreds of brand-new commercial enterprises, both medium and huge will be launched, and power demand is readied to reach 100 billion kilowatt-hours-- 30 billion greater than now. For that reason, we have huge prepare for new reforms and projects in the electric power sector. In the next 5 years, 19 projects worth $6.5 billion will be launched to create 11,500 MW of brand-new capability," he added. Uzbekistan's Energy Minister Alisher Sultanov said his country has been functioning very closely with the IFIs to open up the nation's power market to personal investment and to help the Central Eastern nation reach its goal of 25% of energy consumption deriving from sustainable sources by 2030. "We have a significant variety of projects underway, and currently finished. It is my wonderful enjoyment to update audiences on our development. Uzbekistan is dedicated to plan goals to boost energy effectiveness and rise renewable resource's share of the country's energy mix," Sultanov stated. Earlier this month, Sultanov, shared the nation's plans to update its existing renewable energy targets even higher. Previous targets expected an increase in payments to 3 GW for wind and 5 GW for solar power plants by 2030, as Uzbekistan intends to fulfill 25% of its power requirement by means of renewable energy sources. Such is Uzbekistan's rapid eco-friendly progression-- it plans to boost those targets to 7 GW for solar and 5 GW for wind power. " Uzbekistan is delighted to be functioning carefully with Masdar. Whilst Nur Navoi is the first Masdar project to begin operations in the nation, cooperation advances numerous other solar and wind projects," the Uzbek Energy Ministry said. These include development arrangements for: 2 PV projects for 440 MW incorporated capacity, situated in the Samarkand and Jizzakh regions, and expected to start in Q1 2023 A 457 MW photovoltaic or pv solar energy plant in the Sherabad district of the Surkhandarya province A 500 MW wind farm in Zarafshan district of Navoi area Masdar CEO Mohamed Jameel Al Ramahi called this is a historical occasion for Uzbekistan and a honored moment for everyone at Masdar as we take this important step in Uzbekistan's clean-energy journey. The Nur Navoi Solar Project will certainly play a substantial function in Uzbekistan's energy shift and in attaining its environment modification purposes, he stated. "I am delighted to be right here personally to witness history planned, and I look forward to continuing our extremely effective cooperation with the Government of Uzbekistan, via our solid portfolio of wind and solar projects with an overall capability of around 2.5 GW in the country, an essential calculated financial investment destination for Masdar," Al Ramahi said.
