Tajikistan Rural Electrification Progress
Tajikistan is making significant strides towards achieving near-universal electrification by 2025. The Vakhsh River Basin (VMKB) region currently boasts an impressive 97% electrification rate. This progress is driven by a multifaceted approach, with the installation of mini-grids in remote villages playing a central role. These mini-grids are crucial for extending electricity access to geographically isolated communities, bridging the gap in energy provision. This initiative is further bolstered by increased investment in renewable energy sources and strategic collaborations with international partners. For example, Tajikistan has signed an agreement with ACWA Power to construct a 200 MW solar power plant, further demonstrating the country’s commitment to renewable energy.
