Electricity output fell by 6.5 million kWh year on year, from 255.7 million kWh on November 10, 2025, to 249.2 million kWh this year, The Caspian Post reports, citing UzDaily.

Thermal power plants produced 206.2 million kWh, down 7.1% from the 222 million kWh recorded a year earlier.

Meanwhile, hydropower generation increased by 42.9%, reaching 19 million kWh compared with 13.3 million kWh in the corresponding period last year.

Solar power plants generated 2.9 million kWh, representing an 80.4% decline from 14.8 million kWh a year earlier. In contrast, wind power generation rose nearly sevenfold, increasing from 2.6 million to 18.1 million kWh.

Block stations produced 3 million kWh of electricity, compared with 2.8 million kWh in the same period of 2025. Generation from small-scale solar panels remained unchanged at 0.1 million kWh.

The overall decline in electricity generation was attributed to lower demand. According to the Ministry of Energy, electricity consumption on November 10, 2026, was 8.5% lower than on the same day a year earlier.

In 2025, colder weather increased electricity consumption due to higher heating requirements in buildings, whereas temperatures were warmer this year.
