Ilham Aliyev: Our plan envisages achieving a capacity of 8 GW of solar, wind, and hydropower by 2032

Our plan, based not only on our aspirations but also on signed contracts — legally binding contracts — envisages reaching a capacity of 8 GW of solar, wind, and hydropower by 2032. And this is absolutely realistic.

As reported by AZERTAC, this was stated by President Ilham Aliyev in his speech at the Azerbaijan-Latvia business forum held in Baku on April 22.

"We will largely replace the natural gas used for electricity generation with renewable energy sources, which will allow us to save several billion cubic meters of gas, which is so needed now on international markets," the head of state emphasized.
