Current energy policy and measures
As no country can ensure its development without the development of energy sector, the Government of the Republicof Tajikistan identified the energy security, energy efficiency and energy saving as one of its strategic objectives. For
these purposes, are being developed regulatory and legal documents (sector concepts, strategies, programs).
Development of the energy sector in Tajikistan is guided by the following laws and legal acts:• Constitution of RT• The Law of RT “On Energy”• The Law of RT “On Energy Savings and Energy Efficiency”• The Law of RT “On Usage of Renewable Energy Sources”, etc.
At the moment, Ministry of energy and water resources of the republic of Tajikistan coordinates the implementationof initiatives related to: Rehabilitation of existing infrastructures in energy sector;
 Installation of additional generating capacities;
 Involving the private sector and the implementation of PPP projects in energy sector;

 The development of regional electricity market;

The result of cooperation with JICA inenergy and water resources sectorsJICA started cooperation with Tajikistan since 1993. From 1993 to 2016 our specialists inenergy and water resources sectors learned and improved their skills in the educational
institutions of Japan. The outcome of cooperation JICA in energy and water resources:

Major difficulties in energy sector
The main source of electricity in Tajikistan comes from hydropower (96%).
In winter, due to freezing of rivers, the country experiences a serious shortageof electricity, but in summer it generates a surplus (5-7 bln. kWh) which,due to limited export opportunities, is wasted.
This problem is compounded by deteriorating and exhausting generation
assets, transmission and distribution system inefficiencies and losses, andgovernance issues, specifically management, operational, and financial
performance issues.
Insufficient and unreliable power supply imposes serious costs on thenational economy, especially in rural areas.

Subjects I would like to study
during training courseFirst of all, I want to say that, Japan has a long and rich history. Also, it is important tomention that the experience of Japan in promotion measures for energy efficiency andenergy saving in daily life is advanced among other developed countries.
From this training course, I want to learn Japanese experience in these directions: Implementation energy efficiency and energy saving activities in daily life
based on Japanese experience; Methods and ways of improvement population’s skills on saving energy andmoney in daily life.
