乌兹别克斯坦可再生能源现状及中乌合作建议

乌兹别克斯坦是位于中亚腹地的“双内陆国”,是古代丝绸之路沿线的重要国家之一。针对“一带一路”倡议实施框架内中国与乌兹别克斯坦在可再生能源领域合作的需要,利用文献、数据等分析法,从太阳能、水能、风能、地热能、沼气能等可再生能源的发展现状、国家发展规划、优惠激励措施和可再生能源领域的最新投资项目等角度,对乌兹别克斯坦可再生能源发展总体情况和需求进行了分析。结果表明：乌兹别克斯坦拥有良好的可再生资源条件,未来可再生能源利用比例也将逐渐提高。近年来,乌兹别克斯坦政府高度重视可再生能源发展,接连出台有关政策,大力推进可再生能源发电项目建设,以期实现能源多样化。中乌可再生能源利用领域合作前景广阔,双方在人才、技术、资金、设备等方面合作空间巨大,在提高可再生能源利用效率、发展绿色经济和开展低碳能源合作领域将大有作为。

Current situation of renewable energy in Uzbekistan and suggestions on China-Uzbekistan cooperation

Uzbekistan is a double landlocked country located in the hinterland of Central Asia and an important country on the ancient Silk Road. Within the framework of implementing the Belt and Road initiative, China and Uzbekistan have broad prospects for cooperation in the field of renewable energy. Currently, a knowledge gap exist regarding the latest state of Uzbekistan’s renewable energy development, particularly the national development plan and preferential policies for Uzbekistan’s renewable energy, Uzbekistan’s green economy strategy and carbon emission reduction (climate change) measures, and renewable energy. This article uses literature analysis, case study, data analysis, and other research methods to analyze the development status of Uzbekistan’s renewable energy, such as solar energy, hydropower, wind energy, geothermal energy, biogas energy, national development plans, and a series of preferential incentive measures and green economy strategies. The overall situation of Uzbekistan’s renewable energy development is analyzed from various dimensions, such as carbon reduction measures and market competitiveness. Analysis results show that Uzbekistan has favorable natural conditions for renewable resources, and active policies have been adopted nationally to promote innovative development in the field of renewable energy. In the future, Uzbekistan will gradually increase its proportion of renewable energy and continue to increase financing in this field. Recently, the government of Uzbekistan has been attaching great importance to the development of renewable energy and has successively issued relevant policies to vigorously promote the construction of renewable energy power generation projects to achieve energy diversification. Broad prospects for China-Uzbekistan cooperation are available in the field of renewable energy utilization. Both countries have a considerable cooperation space in talent, technology, capital, and equipment, and are expected to make great achievements in improving the utilization efficiency of renewable energy, developing a green economy, and conducting low-carbon energy cooperation.
