Uzbekistan — Energy Infrastructure

OverWatts maps 160 energy assets in Uzbekistan across 9 layers — the 50th-largest mapped base of 157 countries. They include 86 power plants, 22 cement plants and 18 oil & gas fields. Operating generation capacity is 22.4 GW, led by gas at 64%.

The companies named on the most assets are JSC Uzbekgidroenergo (19), Uzbekneftegaz JSC (12) and ACWA Power Co (11), counting both ownership and operatorship. Half of Uzbekistan's mapped assets in service predate 2017 (median commissioning year of the 82 with a known date), 41 came online in the past decade and the oldest still listed is Bekabadcement Cement Plant, dating from 1926. 40+ projects are under construction or proposed, led by Aral wind farm (5.0 GW).
