Solar panels for Uzbek homes
Uzbekistan: Starting June 1, 2025, Uzbekistan will require all new and renovated buildings to install solar panels, water heaters, and heat pumps as part of a presidential decree issued on March 11. The new regulations aim to enhance energy efficiency in construction and heating. . Uzbekistan is significantly expanding its solar home subsidy program, a powerful initiative designed to reduce the nation's reliance on fossil fuels, cut household energy bills, and accelerate the country's transition to renewable energy sources. The program has already shown impressive results. . More than 35,000 households in Uzbekistan received state subsidies for exporting surplus electricity from rooftop solar systems between January and September, says the State Tax Committee, as participation in the Solar Home program accelerates nationwide.
