Review on the Solar Energy Supply Project in Uzbekistan and Policy Recommendation
Keywords:
Knowledge Sharing Program (KSP), Korea, UzbekistanAbstract
This paper seeks to review the KSP sponsored project - the national strategy for solar energy system supply and fostering the related industry clusters. Then try to present some additory policy recommendations regarding the project. In recent years, Uzbekistan has been diversifying the energy mix and developing renewable energy sources to present some solutions for energy deficits and climate change. Especially since 2016, Uzbekistan has significantly focused its attention on developing renewable energy resources and, in particular, solar energy. In this regard, Uzbekistan has been applying to the Knowledge-Sharing Project (KSP) coordinated by the Korean government for having know-hows of energy supply and developing renewable energy sectors of Korea. In conclusion, this paper presents some recommendations – such as that - it should relate the recommended supply of solar power generation power to the industrial complex in connection with Special Economic Zones (Navoiy, Angren, Jizzax).

Although total geothermal energy potential (67 Gtoe) exceeds that of solar, the underdevelopment of simple and cost-effective technologies to exploit this type of energy limits technical development to only 0.3 Mtoe.
