AGP Executive Report
Last update: 10 hours agoRenewable Energy Push: President Sadyr Japarov opened the first phase of the “ROX Issyk-Kul” solar power plant in Kyzyl-Oruk, Issyk-Kul region. The 175 MW stage (about $130–131 million) is now operating, with the full project planned to reach around 1,900 MW by end-2028; officials say it will ease Kyrgyzstan’s electricity deficit and cut pressure on the Toktogul reservoir, potentially saving up to 362 million cubic meters of water annually at first phase. Waste & Clean Power: Bishkek has started the second phase of its waste-to-energy plant at the main landfill, adding a second processing unit (up to 2,000 tons/day) and a 60 MW power complex; the expansion is expected to process up to 3,000 tons/day and generate about 307 million kWh per year. Air Quality Check: Bishkek’s AQI was reported at 33 (good) on June 14, with PM2.5 listed as the main pollutant. Toxic Pesticide Ban: Kyrgyzstan introduced a nationwide ban on isofenphos-methyl—covering production, registration, import/export, sale, storage, transport, and use—citing serious risks to health and the environment. Mountain Nature Cooperation: Central Asian countries signed a declaration on joint protection of mountain ecosystems and wildlife, including snow leopards, argali, and saiga, with a focus on transboundary ecological corridors and climate impacts.
