INCREASING THE ECONOMIC EFFICIENCY OF THE RENEWABLE ENERGY SYSTEM IN UZBEKISTAN
Abstract
The history of industrial civilization is the history of energy transitions. In less developed agricultural economies, people's basic need for food calories is provided by simple forms of agriculture, which, in fact, is a method of capturing solar energy for human use. Solar energy stored in firewood or other biomass energy meets other basic needs for home heating and cooking. As the economy develops and becomes more complex, energy needs increase significantly. Each stage of economic development was accompanied by a characteristic transition of energy from one main fuel source to another. This transition is driven by many factors, including concerns about the environmental impact (especially climate change), restrictions on the supply of fossil fuels, prices and technological changes.
