Alisher Kadyrov, Deputy of the Legislative Chamber of the Oliy Majlis and head of the "Milliy Tiklanish" democratic party faction, recently commented on the value of natural gas. He emphasized that 1 cubic meter of gas can be used to produce approximately 10 high-value, export-oriented products, which could be sold abroad and create millions of jobs. He shared these thoughts on his social media page.

"People who use billions of cubic meters of gas for heating and cooking are not happy," Kadyrov stated.

He stressed the need to boost electricity production and explore alternatives to gas usage. 

"We support the proposal to promote electricity as the sole energy source for newly built homes. Green energy is our future," he added.

Kadyrov's remarks come amid growing concerns about gas consumption in the country. According to the Statistics Agency, gas imports to Uzbekistan increased by 5.7 times year-on-year to $1.15 billion from January to August 2024, while exports rose by 7.4% to $404 million.
