Kyrgyzstan’s geographic location and climatic conditions are quite favourable for the broader development of solar energy, evident in solar radiation maps.
Kyrgyzstan’s total primary energy supply (TPES) was 3.9 million tonnes of oil equivalent (Mtoe) in 2015 and reached 4.6 Mtoe in 2018. Total final consumption (TFC) totalled 4.2 Mtoe in 2018, and is growing rapidly (+72% since 2008). In 2018, domestic energy production was 2.3 Mtoe, consisting mostly of hydropower (53%) and coal production (37%).
Residential sector is the largest energy consuming sector in the country, followed by transport and industry. Electricity consumption per capita, although sometimes limited by power outages, increased by more than 45% from 2010 to 2018. Renewables contribute to 27% (2018) of Kyrgyzstan’s energy mix.
Executive power in Kyrgyzstan lies with the government, its subordinate ministries, state committees, administrative agencies and local administrations. In the energy sector, the government: Grants and transfers property rights, and rights for use of water, minerals and other energy resources.
Kyrgyzstan is part of the Central Asian Power System connecting Uzbekistan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan and Kazakhstan. New integration plans include the Central Asia-South Asia power project (CASA‑1000), which will connect the electricity-exporting countries of Kyrgyzstan and Tajikistan with Afghanistan and Pakistan to supply them with electricity.
However, Kyrgyzstan charges a fee for pollution; the methodology for pollution fees was approved by the government in 2011. In the oil, gas and coal extraction industries, the level of environmental protection is considered low due to insufficient regulation and legislation.

China''s solar growth sends module prices plummeting
Excess capacity has sent solar panel prices tumbling. In the early 2010s, the stretch goal was to get the cost down to 50c a watt. Now they are selling in China for just 11c. That is great for solar deployment, but less good for manufacturers. The global leader in commercial intelligence for the energy, metals and mining industries, providing objective …
