To strengthen Kyrgyzstan’s power system, the proposed photovoltaic plant is going to play a key role by supporting efforts to diversify power generation sources and improve energy security. At this point, authorities are also exploring scaling up renewable capacity as part of broader plans to meet rising demand while reducing dependence on conventional power sources.

For Masdar, the agreement delineates a continued expansion plan beyond its core markets. Simultaneously, it highlights the company’s focus on collaborating with the government to deliver top-notch clean energy projects on a large-scale premise of the emerging regions. The company has been steadily increasing its involvement in Central Asia as part of its wider international growth strategy.

Masdar also recognised the contribution of its regional leadership, noting that the Central Asia push has been driven by a team led by Abdulla Zayed and Maryam Al Mazrouei, who have overseen the company’s recent progress in the region.
