In particular, the first solar power plants with a total capacity of 200 MW in Karmana and Nurabad districts were built under the terms of public-private partnership at the expense of direct foreign investment and have so far produced 1 billion KWh of energy .
The Masdar company completed the construction project of three photoelectric power stations with a total capacity of 900 MW in Jizzakh, Samarkand and Surkhandarya regions. The first stage of the wind power plant with a capacity of 500 MW has been completed in the Tomdi district of the Navoi region.
