Non-Hydropower Renewable Energy in Central Asia: Assessment of Deployment Status and Analysis of Underlying Factors

Abstract: Despite globally progressing energy transition, the deployment of non-hydropower renewable energy (NHRE) in Central Asia is moderate and varies by country. This paper aims to explain why Central Asian countries with significant challenges in the energy sector are least engaged in NHRE development. In doing so, the paper first reviews scholarly work on renewable energy (RE) deployment in developing countries. For assessing the NHRE development status in Central Asian countries, the paper adopts a two-stage anal… Show more

“…The academic literature discusses different barriers that hinder the successful deployment of renewable energy technologies in developing countries [14][15][16]36,37]. The considered lower-income countries explicitly highlight many of these barriers in their NDCs [32]: (1) institutional and regulatory barriers in the form of weak public institutions, limited cross-institutional coordination, and lacking regulations; (2) informational barriers due to the absence of detailed assessments of renewable energy potential; (3) technical and technological barriers due to the limited availability of the specialized human resources and the required technologies.…”

“…Независимо от того, приводят ли такие стимулы к увеличению или уменьшению выбросов, они скрывают рыночные сигналы, необходимые для эффективной работы электроэнергетического сектора. В Центральной Азии цены на электроэнергию и тепло часто установлены ниже уровня возмещения затрат, что снижает привлекательность инвестиций в инфраструктуру [58,94]. Например, по данным АБР, «Туркменистан известен тем, что имеет самые низкие в мире тарифы на электроэнергию» [94, стр.…”

“…Закон Кыргызстана о чистом воздухе 2020 года делает акцент на электромобилях и стремится стимулировать развитие этого сектора путем предоставления различных Высокие государственные субсидии на электроэнергию в трех странах, богатых ископаемыми ресурсами, не позволяют чистым технологиям возобновляемой энергии конкурировать с более загрязняющим электричеством из сети [94]. В 2017 году доля субсидий на электроэнергию в процентах от ВВП в Узбекистане составила 26 %, в Туркменистане -23 %, а в Казахстане -11 % [58]. Правительству Туркменистана одновременно приходится иметь дело с растущим долгом и растущим спросом на электроэнергию.…”
