INITIAL EFFORTS TO DEVELOP GREEN ENERGY AND GREEN GROWTH IN UZBEKISTAN

Today, it is clear to everyone that the natural resources of all the countries of the world are decreasing, and as a result of this, a number of economic problems arise. The transition to green energy and the promotion of sustainable development have become global priorities in response to the pressing challenges of climate change and environmental degradation. This abstract focuses on the initial efforts made by Uzbekistan towards developing green energy and fostering green growth within its borders. Uzbekistan, as a developing country, is faced with the dual challenge of meeting its increasing energy demand while simultaneously reducing greenhouse gas emissions and environmental impact. Recognizing these challenges, the government has embarked on a path towards a more sustainable and greener future. By examining the experiences of Uzbekistan in its early stages of green energy development, this study contributes to the broader understanding of the opportunities and challenges faced by developing countries in pursuing sustainable development goals. It provides valuable insights that can guide policymakers, researchers, and practitioners in Uzbekistan and beyond, as they seek to accelerate the adoption of green energy and promote sustainable growth in their respective contexts
