Tajikistan is upgrading its transmission infrastructure to support domestic energy needs and regional exports. The 500 kV Datka–Sughd transmission line, developed under the CASA-1000 project, enables energy exports to Pakistan and Afghanistan. Several small- and medium-scale projects were commissioned in early 2025, including:
Tajikistan's theoretical hydropower potential is estimated at over 527 billion kWh annually—enough to meet Central Asia's energy consumption three times over. The Roghun Hydropower Project is the centerpiece of Tajikistan's energy strategy. Designed with a capacity of 3,600–3,780 MW, the dam is projected to generate approximately 17 TWh annually.
Tajikistan aims to add up to 1,500 MW of solar and wind capacity over the next two years, targeting renewables to comprise 10 percent of its energy mix by 2030. The country is committed to achieving a fully green energy transition by 2032 and a green economy by 2037.
Tajikistan is rapidly expanding its solar energy capacity, with several large-scale projects underway:

Tajikistan is one of the most energy-intensive countries in the region. Aging heating systems, poorly insulated buildings, and inefficient technologies in agriculture and industry all
Grid-connected microgrids are largely adopted to support the integration of DG units and,in particular,of renewable energy sources(RES) in distribution networks .
The announcement about the microgrids for Sunnyside and Topanga did not detail construction or operational start dates, but the details on the PPAs indicate that the long-term arrangement
