Правовые и экологические предпосылки отнесения крупных ГЭС к возобновляемым источникам энергии в условиях Таджикистана: инициирование дискуссии

Year: 2022

Collections: Scientific Publications

Topics: Water, Energy

Authors: Улугов У., Султанова Т.

Countries: Tajikistan

Source: Цетральноазиатский журнал исследования климата и устойчивого развития

В статье инициируется дискуссия по одной из наиболее актуальных проблем современного энергетического права, имеющей чрезвычайно важное значение для дальнейшего развития энергетической отрасли Республики Таджикистан и других государств с весомым гидроэнергетическим потенциалом. В частности, в статье поднимается проблема о необоснованности общепризнанной позиции, что крупные ГЭС не относятся к возобновляемым источникам энергии. Авторы статьи исследовали ряд публикаций, в которых излагается идея признания принадлежности крупных ГЭС к возобновляемым источникам энергии, и в рамках настоящей статьи развили её с учётом собственных наблюдений и доводов в контексте гидроэнергетического потенциала Республики Таджикистан.

From 1990 until today, diversification and in some cases a sharp decline of industrial production in Kyrgyzstan have not been properly accompanied by proactive planning and/or management strategies. The adopted 2019-2023 Strategy for Sustainable Industry Development of the Kyrgyz Republic [Decree of the Government of the KR, 2019], including its processing segment, mainly aims to foster the advancement of selected manufacturing sectors and exports, as well as to enhance the competitiveness of Kyrgyz-made industrial goods. Kyrgyzstan’s industry represents one of the key elements of the national economy contributing approx. 20.0% to its GDP [NSC, 2021].
