Uzbekistan: New Development Goals Towards 2030
Development goals and trends towards 2030:
• Ultimate goal – to ensure sustainable economic growth at 7-8% per annum; • Transformation of GDP structure by increasing the share of
manufacturing from 9% in 2012 to 22% in 2030; shift towards production of more sophisticated services;
• Transformation of pattern of enterprises: more large and medium enterprises;
• Population growth, change in the demographic pattern and growth of personal income;
• Transformation of employment pattern and related social transformations contributing to the change of the lifestyle, consumption pattern, behavioral stereotypes;
All this will expand the demand for energy resources to 6.88% per annum
To cope with the new challenges and employ the emerging opportunities the revision of the existing pattern of energy consumption may be required

Transition to the Energy-Efficient Growth Pattern: 2 Viable Options
• Two viable options of transition to the resource-efficient model in energy sector:
• Option 1 – phased approach: increase in extraction of energy resources by 1.5%, while reducing energy intensity down to 40% by 2030 Energy balance shortage at 31.9%, maximum economic growth of 5% towards 2030.
• Option 2 – fast-track: growth in extraction of energy resources by 2%, combined with reduction of energy intensity by 2.3-fold until 2030 5.5% surplus of the energy balance; growth at more than 8% per annum.
Option 2 will enable to attain the goals of the Strategy

How to implement Resource-Efficient Growth Pattern in Energy Sector: Improve Energy Efficiency of Economy
Strategies to improve energy efficiency towards 2030:
1. Complete phase-out of incandescent bulbs, upgrade outdated heating boilers and pumps in all sectors;
2. Introduce within 2 years special systems to track energy and financial flows in the sector (ERP systems, electronic trading, IFRS reporting);
3. Introduce online system of monitoring and billing for households (the integrated system of metering of energy consumption), change the principles of settling accounts with farmers;
4. Introduce technologies to monitor energy flows while transportation (SCADA); complete modernization of power distribution networks and transformers by 2020;
How to implement Resource-Efficient Growth Pattern in Energy Sector: Develop Solar Energy
• Solar energy should become the key driver of energy sector development and account for 6% in the power balance in 2030.
• Potential of renewables in Uzbekistan is 3.1 times as high as the current production of primary energy resources.
• Development of solar energy will generate direct and multiplier effects by boosting demand in the associated sectors, expanding consumption and thus, generating demand for labor and accelerating transformation processes.

How to implement Resource-Efficient Growth Pattern in Energy Sector: Institutional Reforms
1. Implementation of the suggested solutions is not possible without the institutional reforms
2. To identify the strategies for institutional reforms in Uzbekistan, we looked at the experience of countries, that encountered with the problem of scarcity of energy resources - net importers of energy resources
What does experience of net importers suggest?
Regulatory function not performed by NOC
NOC budget is not approved by Government
Chairman is not a minister of energy and not
appointed by government officials
Competition
Privatization in the system of energy distribution
Emphasis on energy efficiency, prices for energy are higher than in net exporters
What we recommend for Uzbekistan?
Split up business functions from regulatory functions in the energy sector. This requires to set up one regulatory body (Ministry of Energy) and leave companies to explicitly focus on business operations
Gradually reduce the difference between prices for domestic consumers and export prices of gas by raising domestic tariffs (with mechanisms to ensure affordability for low-income group)
After 2020 gradual privatization in the system of energy distribution and transmission could be started to attract private investments into the sector.

Questions for discussion
• Are we on the right path?
• Are there any dimensions, critical issues which were omitted, should get considered in more detail?
• What approaches, methods and indicators need to be revised?
• What’s next? How can we jump to formulating the detailed Action Plan and Road Map for the Vision? Suggested formats and models.
• Are there windows for synergies?
