"Perspective use of nuclear energy for peaceful purposes in sustainable development of Organization of Islamic Cooperation member states: international and national experience"

Nuclear energy plays a critical role in sustainable development, contributing to energy security and reducing climate risks. Uzbekistan is actively advancing the peaceful use of nuclear energy by developing its national nuclear infrastructure, with a strong focus on scientific progress, the safe application of nuclear technologies, and the training of qualified specialists.

By 2030, Uzbekistan aims to establish a reliable, cost-effective, and environmentally friendly electricity supply by creating a comprehensive national nuclear infrastructure. A key priority is the construction of a small modular nuclear power plant (SMR), which will enhance national expertise and strengthen Uzbekistan's international standing in the nuclear sector.
