Cabinet of Ministers signs investment agreement with RECA LLC - Rox Energy Global on solar energy project with capacity of up to 1,900 MW

AKIPRESS.COM — The Cabinet of Ministers of the Kyrgyz Republic and RECA LLC – ROX Energy Global officially signed an investment agreement to build a solar power plant with a total capacity of up to 1,900 MW on July 25. The project, a key part of Kyrgyzstan’s long-term strategy for sustainable energy development, will be implemented in Kyzyl Oruk village of Issyk-Kul region.

Kyrgyzstan’s favorable climate, with over 270 sunny days a year, offers a significant advantage for developing renewable energy. The country’s solar energy potential is estimated at 5.3 billion kWh per year. According to the International Energy Agency and the World Bank, the Issyk-Kul region’s solar radiation level is approximately 5.4 kWh/m² per day, which is an optimal indicator for large-scale solar projects.

Furthermore, as a member of the Central Asia Power System (CAPS), Kyrgyzstan holds a strategic position to connect with and export electricity to neighboring countries like Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, and China.

The development of the renewable energy sector is one of the priority areas in the energy policy of the Kyrgyz Republic. The government has created favorable conditions for the implementation of renewable energy projects and the attraction of foreign investment in this sector.

In this area, a key role is played by RECA LLC, a subsidiary of ROX ENERGY GLOBAL, specializing in the development of clean energy and operating in the Kyrgyz Republic. The company plans to prioritize the use of advanced solar photovoltaic panels and energy storage systems. It will also actively cooperate with local communities to ensure a positive socio-economic impact.

Minister of Energy of Kyrgyzstan Talaibek Ibraev praised the collaboration, stating that the project will not only increase the country’s power capacity but also stimulate technological development, strengthen the investment climate, and improve living standards.

Director of RECA LLC Chan Thi Ngoc Chau emphasized the shared strategic vision between the public and private sectors for a “green, sustainable, and reliable energy future for Kyrgyzstan.”
