Abstract. The economic development of the Republic of Uzbekistan largely depends on traditional energy sources (gas, coal, water) with the help of which electrical energy is produced. Growing social tension in the world and the presence of deep-seated environmental problems are driving great interest in the use of new energy sources. One of the key issues for solving the country’s economic development is the transition to a “green economy”. Today, climate change is one of the main and real threats to our planet. One of the main problems is the lack of energy resources, as well as emissions from combustion products in the form of carbon into the atmosphere. The Republic of Uzbekistan is an energy efficient country. Providing electricity to the country's economy and population is especially critical. Taking into account the structure of the republic's economy as an industrial-agrarian one, the operation of power plants mainly through the use of gas and coal, objective prerequisites have emerged for improving the structure of the energy balance through renewable energy sources. The article outlines the current state of the energy industry, the need to introduce a green economy in the republic, problematic issues and ways to solve them.
Keywords: energy, green economy, water resources, power increase, electricity consumption.
