World Potential (TAJIKISTAN)
Hydropower development
The gross theoretical hydro potential is 527 000 GWh/year,
representing about 60 200 MW of capacity. About half of this
is economically feasible.
The major hydropower plants in operation, under construction
and planned were listed in a table in the 1997 world Atlas.
There is 4054 MW of hydro of capacity in operation, about
4600 MW under construction, about 11 800 MW planned. Hydro
plants generated 16 120 GWh in 1996, about 96 per cent of
power production.
The owner of all powerplants in Tadjikistan, including substations,
power lines and grids, is the Barki-Tadjik Stat Joint-Stock
Power company.
The privatization of the energy sector is now beginning. So
far only a few hydro plants which are not connected to the
grid are privately owned.
The main priority in the energy sectors is further hydropower
development.
