| Asia Solar Energy Initiative Launched With US$2.25B | The initiative was launched on May 3, 2010 in the Uzbekistan capital Tashkent and the ABD said that it will provide an additional US$2.25bn to support projects with a combined generating capacity of 3000MW of solar power by 2012. The bank indicated that the combination of growing electricity demand, abundant desert and commitments to offset carbon emissions, made Central Asia a strong candidate for investment. | |
| Tajikistan Hydro Allocated Korean Funds | The Korea International Cooperation Agency plans to allocate $2.8 million to help fund hydroelectric projects in mountainous districts of Tajikistan, government agencies reported. | |
| World Bank to Finance Roghun Feasibility and Environmental Studies | We have at last reached the final stage of the issue of a feasibility study and environmental assessment of [Tajikistan's] Roghun hydroelectric power station project, the World Bank's regional director for Central Asia, Motoo Konishi, told journalists at a meeting in Dushanbe recently. | |

| Tajikistan Starts $1.4B Rogun Hydro Plant Share Sale | Tajikistan began selling shares in a giant hydroelectric power plant on Wednesday in an effort to raise $1.4 billion from its people amid one of the worst economic slumps in decades. | |
| Biofuel Crop Investment Options Considered for Central Asia | Uzbekistan , Kyrgyzstan and Tajikistan - What these three downstream countries do have however is a Soviet-era legacy of agricultural production, which in Uzbekistan’s and Turkmenistan case was largely directed towards cotton production, while Kazakhstan, beginning in the 1950s with Khrushchev’s “Virgin Lands” programs, has become a major producer of wheat. Based on my (John C. K. Daly) discussions with Central Asian government officials, given the thirsty demands of cotton monoculture, foreign proposals to diversify agrarian production towards biofuel would have great appeal in Astana, Ashgabat and Tashkent and to a lesser extent Astana for those hardy investors willing to bet on the future, especially as a plant indigenous to the region has already proven itself in trials. | |
| Tajikistan Looks for Hydro Funds | Tajikistan is to request up to $3B in loans from China to help fund hydro schemes and other infrastructure projects in the country. | |
| Saving Biomass in Tajikistan | Welthungerhilfe - German Agro Action (GAA) has been promoting the '6 in 1 heat exchanger' which maximizes the efficiency of traditional stoves. The newly designed stove allows rural families to get warm, heat water, take a bath, bake bread, cook food, and prepare tea, all with one source of energy. The simple, cheap and locally replicable stove helps to protect the environment by reducing the consumption of firewood, and hence the felling of trees, and the burning of animal dung, a valuable source of organic fertilizer. | |
| Bharat Heavy Electricals Ltd Eastern Europe Projects Discussed | Report on a Bulgarian CHP plant and Tajik hydropower projects. | |
| Solar PV Used by Nomadic People in Tajikistan | Families are using photovoltaic panels rather than kerosene for lighiting and other tasks. | |
| Turkish Micro Hydro Equipment Offered for Export | The Turkish Electromechanics Industry, or TEMSAN, which deals with the production, establishment, operation and maintenance services of energy installations, has started to export micro hydroelectric power plants.
These power plants enable electricity generation even from small streams. Designed and developed with the slogan “Generate your own electricity,” they have been exported to the Fiji Islands and Tajikistan.
