Abstract:
Although Uzbekistan has substantial solar and wind energy potential, it faces significant challenges inexpanding renewable energy utilization and improving the efficiency of its power grid. This study examines the currentstate of renewable energy adoption and the performance of the power grid using econometric and statistical analyses.Specifically, multiple regression models are used to identify factors influencing the slow uptake of renewable energysources, while time-series forecasting techniques project future trends in the energy mix and grid losses. The resultsindicate that renewable energy adoption remains sluggish and the national power grid suffers from high transmission anddistribution losses, significantly undermining overall efficiency. Projections suggest that without stronger interventions,renewable energy capacity will grow only marginally in coming years and grid inefficiencies will persist, revealing criticalgaps in existing energy policies. These findings underscore the need for accelerated investment in renewable energyprojects, modernization of grid infrastructure, and efficiency improvements to minimize losses. Addressing these issuesis essential for Uzbekistan to meet its future energy demand and achieve its sustainability and energy security goals
