UZBEKISTAN’S GREEN TRANSITION

Abstract

This article examines the development of the green economy in Uzbekistan as a strategic direction of economic modernization, energy security and sustainable investment attraction. The study focuses on renewable energy expansion, energy efficiency, green finance, environmental policy and circular economy mechanisms. The analysis shows that Uzbekistan has moved from declarative environmental policy toward large-scale institutional and investment reforms, although the effectiveness of the transition still depends on regulatory consistency, private-sector participation, technological modernization and stronger environmental governance.
