With an aging electricity supply that relies almost entirely on one source of power generation, hydropower, Tajikistan has a uniquely unstable power supply that has caused energy shortages and rolling blackouts for decades. Now, Tajikistan appears to be moving its energy sector towards greater reliability and sustainability.
Alongside mass growth in Tajikistan’s production of green hydrogen, Juma stated that Dushanbe plans for 10% of Tajikistan's energy production by 2040 to come from other renewable sources such as wind and solar.
Saudi Arabia is also investing more in Tajik energy. Riyad has invested $100 million in the ongoing construction of the Rogun dam and in January, Ambassador of Tajikistan to Saudi Arabia Akram Karimi met with the Saudi Secretary General of the Public Investment Fund to discuss future plans for Saudi involvement in Tajik green energy.
Brussels seems also to view investments in Tajik energy as a way to offset a much more intense adversary: Russia. The traditional regional hegemon in Central Asia, Russia has control over Tajikistan’s second-largest hydropower plant, Sangtuda-2, and continues to import most of its petroleum, 63.3%, from Moscow.
In late February, the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD), one of the banks involved in the Global Gateway investments, announced €31 million in investments into Tajikistan’s energy grid aimed at improving sustainability and integrating 700 megawatts of electricity generated by renewable sources into the grid.
China is an important investor for Tajikistan’s hydropower sector. In 2020, China upgraded Tajikistan’s Golovnaya Hydropower Station, after having renovated it two previous times. In May 2023, the China-led Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank provided $500 million in soft loans to help construct the colossal Rogun hydroelectric plant.
