Stabilize and improve efficiency of power supply in remote areas through introduction of renewable power generation.
Efficiency
EE priorities: 
Design policy instruments to foster conservation of energy (among all categories of consumers), develop balanced solutions to existing tasks of enhancing efficiency of the national energy sector. --- Priorities: develop EE policies and institutions supporting the objective of Tajikistan’s economic growth.
EE targets: 
Potential for improving energy conservation is estimated to be about 30-40 per cent.
Renewable Energy
RE priorities: 
Art. II ‘Objectives of the Concept’. Remove barriers to enhancing the use of renewable energy, facilitate the introduction of innovative clean environmentally sound technology solutions.---Rich in hydropower, with much RE potential remaining largely untapped, Tajikistan will implement measures to set in operation new hydropower generating facilities.
RE action plans: 
Art. ‘Protection of the Environment and Tackling Existing Environmental Issues’. State support will be provided to the enterprises introducing low waste, resource conserving technologies and using renewable resources.
Energy Supply and Infrastructure
Infrastructure development priorities: 
Objectives of the Concept include modernization of Tajikistan’s unified power supply system.
Technology
Clean energy technology priorities: 
Art. II ‘Objectives of the Concept’. Remove barriers to enhancing the use of renewable energy, facilitate the introduction of innovative clean environmentally sound technology solutions.
Technology collaboration with other member States:
