Is solar PV a suitable technology for sustainable electricity supply in Kyrgyzstan?
The study shows that the solar PV farm is a suitable technology for sustainable electricity supply in Kyrgyzstan over hydropower plants. The study further identifies the solution to bridge the gap between the technical potential of solar PV and market barriers. 1. Introduction
Is a large-scale solar PV farm feasible in Kyrgyzstan?
In response to that, the presented study performs the feasibility study of a large-scale solar PV farm in Kyrgyzstan. The simulation of the PV farm was developed by using the modeling software tool Polysun. The results of the simulation displayed great potential for solar energy, especially for a high-altitude region.
What is the potential of solar energy in Kyrgyzstan?
On the other hand, Kyrgyzstan presents an enormous solar energy potential due to its high-altitude characteristics. It has been estimated that the potential of solar energy in Kyrgyzstan is 60 % higher than in Frankfurt. Fig. 1 portrays the potential of solar energy in Kyrgyzstan.
Should Kyrgyzstan invest in solar energy?
Legislative pillar: The policymakers should make the FIT more attractive to invite investors to invest in solar-assisted power generation to expand the RE sector in Kyrgyzstan. Consequently, the government should give preference to promoting solar energy instead of focusing on hydro energy.
Does Kyrgyzstan manufacture PV modules?
At the same time, the literature review identified that a Kyrgyz-German company called New-Tek manufactures PV modules. Hence, in order to reduce the import taxes as well as to assess the performance of locally manufactured PV modules, the presented research selected a PV module of New-Tek from Kyrgyzstan for further simulations.
Should Kyrgyzstan invest in R&D?
Given the high solar energy potential of Kyrgyzstan, investing in R&D should represent the first phase to boost renewable energy growth. Besides the gradual reduction of subsidies for renewable energy generation, the decarbonization target of different industries has developed trends for funding clean energy projects.
