Reinforcing Our Mission in Uzbekistan’s Energy Transition
Since its creation in 2019, UzAssystem has been a trusted engineering partner of the Ministry of Energy, supporting the implementation of strategic infrastructure projects including grid modernisation, renewable energy deployment, and nuclear readiness.
Earlier this year, UzAssystem signed a Memorandum of Understanding during the official visit of the President of Uzbekistan to France, with the goal of harmonising standards across key energy sectors: pumped-storage hydropower, battery energy storage systems (BESS), distributed generation, energy export, nuclear development, and fault management in distribution networks. This initiative is now part of the ‘France–Uzbekistan’ bilateral roadmap.
Additionally, following the Presidential Resolution PR-51, UzAssystem is collaborating with the Ministry of Investment (MIIT) to simplify procedures and improve project delivery in IFI-funded programmes.
UzAssystem Celebrates 5 Years Supporting Uzbekistan’s Energy Transition Programme
It was celebration time on the UzAssystem stand at the 2024 Power Uzbekistan exhibition as the team marked the consultancy’s 5th birthday!
UzAssystem is a collaboration between The Ministry of Energy of the Republic of Uzbekistan and Assystem, established in 2019 with the objective of creating an expert consultancy capable of delivering the engineering projects key to the country’s energy transition programme.
UzAssystem supports the national energy transition programme
As part of its commitment to the Ministry of Energy, UzAssystem is responsible for developing a programme of knowledge transfer between international experts from Assystem and local Uzbek students and engineers.
Samandar T, a part-time intern in the grid Modelling department said: “The internship at UzAssystem became not just an experience for me, but a real testing ground for developing my engineering skills. Here I got a unique opportunity to apply theoretical knowledge gained at university in practice. Working in a team of experienced professionals allowed me to learn new technologies and techniques.”
Key highlights of the Past 5 Years of UzAssystem
• Over 20 project studies have been undertaken since the launch of the partnership, such as, 15 Dynamic Stability Studies, 8 Grid Code Compliance Studies, 15 Power Evacuation Studies as well as additional projects in Grid Modelling.
• Investment in computers and technical licences at Technical State University Tashkent (TSTU)
• DigSilent Masterclass Training at TSTU for 47 students
• A separate internship programme for students at UzAssystem
• Project delivery on numerous power engineering projects related to the grid modelling of the national electrical grid
• Project delivery on Battery Energy Storage Systems, Wind Power Plants, Solar Power Plants, and Combined Cycle Power Plants
Nicolas Dugot, General Manager of UzAssystem said: “We have delivered on our commitment to establish an expert consultancy that looks and feels local and that is supported by the know-how of Assystem, a major player in the global energy transition. We are excited about what is next for UzAssystem, training more students and applying more of the leading-edge digital approaches to projects that are putting Uzbekistan on the map as a country leading the way in their low-carbon energy transformation.”
Visit the UzAssystem team at Power Uzbekistan!
Uzbekistan’s leading energy conference Power Uzbekistan is coming soon and the UzAssystem team is looking forward to welcoming you to our booth between 14 – 16 May at the Uzexpocentre in Tashkent. Located at stand M100, UzAssystem’s team of experts will be available throughout the conference to discuss how our expertise in the various sectors of low-carbon energy can support our clients to deliver their projects.
17th edition of Power Uzbekistan
This is the 17th edition of Power Uzbekistan, and the expo also hosts the programme of Uzbekistan’s 4th International Energy Conference, that features discussions on key topics related to the country’s energy investments. On day two of the conference, Guillaume Puravet, Assystem’s International Vice President of Energy, will be talking about the benefits of nuclear power at the “Peaceful Nuclear Energy: Towards Net Zero” roundtable event.
UzAssystem supports the Ministry of Energy in its energy transition programme
Since 2019, UzAssystem has been supporting the Ministry of Energy on projects key to the country’s energy transition programme, including electrical grid remodelling as well as the development of new projects in wind and solar.
At the event UzAssystem will be showcasing its expertise in engineering, project management and digital services, with a focus on innovation in the design process for energy transition projects.
Nicolas Dugot, General Manager at UzAssystem said: “It’s a very exciting time for the energy sector in Uzbekistan and this event is the perfect opportunity to discuss your project or indeed your career with the UzAssystem team, we look forward to meeting you there.”

UzAssystem to support delivery of 300km2 wind farm projects
UzAssystem has been awarded a new contract to support the site characterisation studies that will enable the development of new wind farms in Uzbekistan’s Bukhara and Kungrad regions.
Uzbekistan is setting its sights on becoming a renewable leader
Uzbekistan is undergoing a rapid transformation. By 2025, experts predict that the country’s energy production will have risen by around 40%, before doubling again by 2030.
To meet this demand, Uzbekistan’s Ministry of Energy is investing heavily in renewable energy sources across the country. By 2030, around 40% of Uzbekistan’s energy production is expected to come from renewables.
Our role in enabling renewable energy projects
ACWA Power selected UzAssystem to deliver site characterisation work for the pre-development work to enable the construction of new wind farms in Uzbekistan’s Bukhara and Kungrad regions. Combined, the wind farms will cover a total area of more than 300km2.
Our teams will provide crucial pre-development work to ensure the suitability of the sites to enable construction to begin. Our expertise will cover geotechnical, geophysical, topographical, and hydrological studies of the proposed sites, examining the physical, mechanical, and chemical characteristics of the terrain using ground-based surveys and tests combined with satellite and digital mapping of the project site.
UzAssystem: a trusted partner in the delivery of energy transition programmes.
This project is the latest in portfolio of projects delivered across the country by UzAssystem’s energy transition experts. Since the Assystem group arrived in Uzbekistan in 2019, it has developed a team consisting of home-grown engineering expertise combined with the support of an international network of expertise spread across 12 countries of operation.
Feza Abadanc, Operations Manager, UzAssystem said: “UzAssystem was formed in 2019 when the Assystem Group formed a joint venture with Uzbekistan’s Ministry of Energy. Since then, our teams have grown and proven the value of their expertise in engineering, digital, and project management at the service of Uzbekistan’s energy transition. This latest project reinforces our commitment to helping Uzbekistan to become a leading producer of renewable energy by 2030.”
