Tajikistan announced the completion of upgrades to several major hydropower stations, significantly boosting its electricity export capacity to neighboring markets. Officials say the expanded output will help meet domestic demand and support regional grid integrations, particularly in markets where winter electricity shortfalls have been commonplace.
The country’s energy ministry confirmed that the improvements were completed ahead of schedule, citing strong investment and technical collaboration with foreign partners. Consumer advocates welcomed the development, suggesting that reliable energy flows could help reduce outages in rural areas.
Economic experts note that Tajikistan’s hydropower strategy remains central to its development goals, positioning the country as a key energy node in Central Asia.
