United Arab Emirates renewable energy company Masdar has partnered with Uzbekhydroenergo to evaluate the potential of national hydroelectric power storage projects.
Masdar and Uzbekhydroenergo, a state-owned hydroelectric power producer, said they were looking to enhance Uzbekistan’s renewable energy capacity and address supply challenges.
