Growth of prices to hydrocarbon raw materials in recent years stimulated to search and introduce alternative sources of the energy. Currently, some countries adopted programmes on development of renewable energy. In the result, total capacities of installed solar energy stations rose twice in Europe and Middle East. Total area of solar collectors reached 15 million square meters in the USA, 12 million square meters in Japan. Use of wing energy is growing annually by 40-45% in Europe.

According to some calculations, opportunities of the use of renewable energy in Uzbekistan are equal to 51 billion tonnes of oil equivalent. Use of renewable energy can ensure energy independence and provide electricity to rural and remote areas, decrease greenhouse emission, and development of the country.

During the discussions, local experts said that Uzbekistan undertakes steps to stimulate use of renewable energy. It was said Uzbekistan needs to further develop legislative framework in renewable energy.
