Kyrgyzstan has invited COP29 participants to the Kambar-Ata HPP-1 project
Kyrgyzstan called on COP29 participants to join the Kambar-Ata HPP-1 regional project. This was stated by the Minister of Energy of Kyrgyzstan Taalaibek Ibraev at the Investment Forum on Energy Transition for Central Asia within the framework of COP29.
“The joint launch of projects in the field of renewable energy sources will make it possible to achieve more efficient use and management of water resources in Kyrgyzstan and in the region as a whole, ensuring the production of environmentally friendly energy. These measures will contribute to strengthening the energy, environmental and food security not only of our country, but also of other states and regions. I call on energy ministers, representatives of international communities and conference participants to join the Kambar-Ata HPP-1 regional project located at the headwaters of the rivers of Central Asia,” Ibrayev said.
According to him, the uniqueness of this project is determined by the coordinated consolidation of efforts of all three states – Kyrgyzstan, Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan – with the support of the World Bank.
“I am confident that only coordinated action within the framework of the green agenda will allow everyone to develop and strengthen partnership projects between governments, the private sector and IFIs,” the minister stressed.
