Photovoltaic energy storage power station in Tajikistan
By the end of 2024, seven other solar power plants with a total capacity of 5.3 MW will be introduced into operation in the Gorno-Badakhshan Autonomous Region (GBAO), says
Tajikistan's theoretical hydropower potential is estimated at over 527 billion kWh annually—enough to meet Central Asia's energy consumption three times over. The Roghun Hydropower Project is the centerpiece of Tajikistan's energy strategy. Designed with a capacity of 3,600–3,780 MW, the dam is projected to generate approximately 17 TWh annually.
Tajikistan is upgrading its transmission infrastructure to support domestic energy needs and regional exports. The 500 kV Datka–Sughd transmission line, developed under the CASA-1000 project, enables energy exports to Pakistan and Afghanistan. Several small- and medium-scale projects were commissioned in early 2025, including:
try, with hydroelectric power plants generating over 95% of Tajikistan's electricity. Of the total installed electricity genera ion capacity of 6,400 megawatts (MW), more than 5,800 MW relies on hydroelectric power. The largest operational facility, the Nurek hydroelectric power station, has a capacity of 3,000 MW, while the ongo ng constr
Tajikistan is rapidly expanding its solar energy capacity, with several large-scale projects underway:
