Green Economy Transition Strategy for Uzbekistan

Abstract

A global race for green transition is intensifying. Countries are announcing Net Zero targets. This is not only
to address the worsening climate crisis but also to compete in the global market which is getting more and more
sensitive to the demands from climate and environment conscious business and consumers.
The Net Zero targets of Uzbekistan to improve 35% of the greenhouse gas emission per unit of GDP and
25% renewable energy share by 2030 are ambitious and strategic. Recent Presidential Decree for acceleration
of renewable energy and energy-saving technologies is an excellent example of political leadership and
commitment.
