Last August, Shavkat Mirziyoyev announced the transition of the energy sector's leadership to an emergency working mode. The President urged officials to take immediate action to prepare the energy system for the autumn-winter period.
At a meeting in October 2023, the head of state instructed the development of a program for the modernization of power lines and transformers by the end of 2026. By that time, it is planned to reduce the share of electricity losses in the networks by 1.5 times.
The President reiterated the goal of eliminating emergency power outages by June of this year. An additional 14 trillion sums will be allocated for the preparation of the energy sector for the upcoming autumn-winter period.
