This article analyzes the current state of energy supply in rural areas of Uzbekistan, the main problems and promising directions for their solution. Problems with the quality and continuity of electricity supply in rural areas of our country, network obsolescence, access to renewable energy sources (QTM) and their impact on the living standards of the population have been studied extensively. The article assesses the importance of solar energy, wind energy and hydropower for rural areas, as well as proposes mechanisms for the implementation of smart grid technologies and energy efficiency improvement programs. As a result of the study, policy and investment proposals aimed at ensuring energy security of rural populations have been developed.
