Abstract

This article investigates the electrification of mountain villages in Tajikistan through the use of combined renewable energy sources. The decentralized electricity supply to mountain areas in particular can mitigate serious problems related to the population’s limited access to energy in winter. Firstly, a view to ensuring the reliability of the energy supply to the zones is carried out. Secondly, recommendations on the use of small hybrid hydropower stations in inaccessible mountain areas of the republic are given. Keywords: energy security, small hybrid hydropower stations, transmission lines, decentralized electricity zone, photovoltaic (PV) station.
