Summary

Introduction

Disproportions, appearing in the structure of economics, its low economic efficiency (both of parts of it and in general) can lead to a slowdown of a sustainable development and an emergence of regions inside the countries. Realization of the projects in the area of energetics, even not large ones presupposes substantial value of capital investments, great pay-off period, high risks, its realization by capacities of only economic entities, regions, and separate countries becomes a task difficult or often impossible to implement In projects of this scale in the energy sector, the development of alternative energy sources, it is advisable to combine the efforts of the state and business on PPP terms with the involvement of international financial institutions. Their share is 13 billion USD with total loans of 14.6 billion USD, or 13% of those issued to all countries in all sectors of the economy Considering that these macro regions suffer from substantial lack of electric power, governments of the countries together with IDA and private investors make large capital investments into PPP projects in energetics, allowing to develop economics, fight poverty and solve socially important questions. IBRD and IDA financed 2 projects in Uzbekistan on the implementation of energy-saving technologies in industry and energy efficiency of heat supply, which amounted to 18% of the total funding in this sector
