Saudi Arabia’s ACWA power expands in Uzbekistan

The company seeks to develop gas-to-power, renewable energy, and green hydrogen.

Saudi-developer ACWA Power expands in Uzbekistan through three major agreements, meant to develop gas-to-power, renewable energy and green hydrogen projects, amongst others.

The company will be partnering with the government of Uzbekistan to develop 1.5 gigawatts (GW) wind farm. It is valued at around $2.4b and is expected to be fully commissioned by the first quarter of 2026.

“This partnership will be a major contribution to Uzbekistan's achievements in developing and modernising the energy sector, and specifically our dedication to green energy,” Azim Akhmedkhojaev, First Deputy Minister of Energy of the Republic of Uzbekistan, said.

“The joint projects will also give us access to the most modern technologies.”

ACWA Power also entered into an investment Cooperation Agreement to jointly develop gas-to-power, renewable energy, and green hydrogen projects in the country.

Moreover, the company will be charting a roadmap for investment of green hydrogen in Uzbekistan, in partnership with Air Products.

“With the signing of these key agreements with Uzbekistan’s Ministry of Investments & Foreign Trade and Ministry of Energy, Uzbekistan will become the second largest country for ACWA Power in terms of overall investment and we are proud to play a vital role in supporting the nation’s decarbonisation efforts, stemming from the strong international cooperation between Saudi Arabia and Uzbekistan under their visionary leadership,” Mohammad Abunayyan, ACWA Power Chairman, said.

Global clean energy tech market to hit $2t by 2035

This is fuelled by investments as countries aim to enhance energy security.The global clean energy technology market is projected to grow from $700b in 2023 to over $2t by 2035, nearing the scale of the crude oil market, according to the International Energy Agency (IEA).This growth is fuelled by significant investments in clean technology manufacturing as countries aim to enhance energy security, maintain economic competitiveness, and cut emissions. Investment is concentrated in regions with established positions in clean energy, particularly China, the European Union, the UK, and increasingly, India.Whilst the US, EU, and India have taken measures to support their clean energy sectors, China is expected to remain the world's manufacturing hub. By 2035, China's clean technology exports are forecasted to exceed $340b—comparable to projected oil export revenues from Saudi Arabia and the UAE.Southeast Asia, Latin America, and Africa contribute less than 5% of global cleantech production value, yet the IEA suggests that these areas still hold opportunities within the clean energy economy. Developing economies, for instance, could leverage competitive advantages to advance in the value chain beyond resource extraction.The IEA said Southeast Asia could become one of the most cost-effective regions for producing polysilicon and wafers for solar panels over the next decade.
