The first wind power plant to be launched in the Murgab district

Tajikistan is set to commission its first wind power plant in the Murgab district, a significant step in the nation's renewable energy development. The 200 kW facility is part of the "Rural Electrification" program, a joint effort between the Tajik government and the World Bank.

This program has already seen the installation of 22 solar power plants in remote Murgab villages, totaling 13 MW. "Pamir Energy," the company behind these projects, also plans to launch seven more solar power plants with a combined capacity of 540 kW. These initiatives are crucial for enhancing energy security and promoting a green economy.

The Ministry of Energy and Water Resources highlighted the importance of such projects, particularly for isolated communities in mountainous regions. The "Rural Electrification" program, scheduled to continue until 2027, aims to improve electricity access across remote settlements in the GBAO and Khatlon regions, including several districts within Murgab.

Such projects are of great importance for the development of renewable energy in the country. They are also aimed at strengthening energy security, supporting the green economy, and providing electricity to residents of mountainous areas.
