Tajikistan
Critical minerals, policy, and the energy transition
The Energy Transition in Tajikistan
Tajikistan is positioning itself as a key player in the global energy transition, leveraging its abundant hydropower resources and critical mineral reserves. The country’s energy mix is predominantly driven by hydropower, capitalising on its mountainous terrain, while also relying on petroleum, coal, and natural gas. Tajikistan's rich deposits of critical minerals, including aluminium, copper, gold, and zinc, are crucial for global industries such as clean energy technologies and electronics. These minerals are particularly important in the production of batteries, renewable energy systems, and infrastructure development. As Tajikistan advances its energy and mineral sectors, it is integrating ESG frameworks to ensure sustainable development. Geopolitically, Tajikistan’s strategic position in Central Asia, alongside its participation in the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation (SCO) and the Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS), strengthens its role in regional energy security and critical mineral supply chains. By investing in its hydropower potential and mineral resources, Tajikistan is well-positioned to support the global transition to clean energy while fostering economic growth and regional cooperation.
