ENERGY PROFILE Kyrgyzstan
These profiles have been produced to provide an overview of developments in renewable energy in different countries and areas. The IRENA statistics team would welcome comments and
Kyrgyzstan's geographic location and climatic conditions are quite favourable for the broader development of solar energy, evident in solar radiation maps.
Data will be available through the .Stat Data Explorer, which also allows users to export data in Excel and CSV formats. Kyrgyzstan has considerable untapped renewable energy potential. Existing renewable energy consists of large HPPs, which account for 30% of total energy supply, but only 10% of hydropower potential has been developed.
Kyrgyzstan has more than 30 geothermal sources, but only some of them are used, and then only in sanatoriums and resorts (e.g. Issyk-Ata and Teplye Klyuchi) due to their low capacity.
After Kyrgyzstan gained its independence, residential power consumption rose significantly due to intensive use of electricity for heating and cooking.
