Background:
Tetra Tech is a leading provider of high-end consulting and engineering services for projects worldwide. We combine the resources of a global, multibillion-dollar company with local, client-focused delivery in more than 400 locations around the world. We are Leading with Science® to provide sustainable and resilient solutions for our clients. Tetra Tech was awarded the USAID Power Central Asia Activity (PCA) from October 2021 to September 2025. The goal of the PCA is to assist the five Central Asian countries - Kazakhstan, the Kyrgyz Republic, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan and Uzbekistan - to meet their national and regional energy priorities, promoting national market liberalization, scaling up clean energy technologies and expanding opportunities for private sector investment that will unlock the economic benefits of expanded regional energy trade.

Kyrgyz Republic has been working toward power sector reform and liberalization. The principal long-term policy document of the energy sector in the Kyrgyz Republic (KG) is the National Energy Program (NEP) for 2008-2010 and Energy Sector Development Strategy to 2025. The key objectives of the NEP are to enhance energy security, energy efficiency and sustainable development, all of which are relevant due to fluctuations in hydropower production, reliance on hydrocarbon imports, and aged, inefficient infrastructure (one of the reasons for high losses). With 100 percent electricity access, a reliable and efficient power supply is a key cornerstone of high-pace economic development. Plans for the power sector development are also included into the National Development Program (NDP) of the Kyrgyz Republic until 2026 approved on October 12, 2021. A new Medium-Term Tariff Policy (MTTP) to 2021-2025 was adopted on September 30, 2021. The new MTTP kept tariffs for residential consumers at the level of 2015 but provided for a 12.5% increase in tariffs for most industrial customers.
