Power Plants in Uzbekistan

Uzbekistan has 86 power plants mapped on the OverWatts open energy atlas — the 43rd-largest fleet of the 155 countries that hold any, and 0.3% of the world's mapped total. Of these, 38 operating and 45 under construction or proposed. Operating generation capacity totals 22.4 GW across 38 utility-scale plants of 100 MW and above. The largest is Aral wind farm (5.0 GW).

The largest owner-operators are JSC Uzbekgidroenergo (14), ACWA Power Co (11) and Masdar Clean Energy (7) — JSC Uzbekgidroenergo alone is named on 16% of them. Half of Uzbekistan's power plants in service predate 2022 (median commissioning year of the 38 with a known date), 24 came online in the past decade and the oldest still listed is Farkhad hydroelectric plant, dating from 1948. 45 are in the pipeline, led by Aral wind farm (5.0 GW), proposed. They account for 54% of every energy asset OverWatts maps in Uzbekistan.
