Solar panels with a total capacity of over 5,000 kW have been installed in more than 1,500 individual homes, public, and social buildings in Azerbaijan's liberated territories, Energy Minister Parviz Shahbazov said in an article titled “Azerbaijan Becomes a Regional Energy Hub,” published on October 20 in the Azerbaijan newspaper.
Shahbazov stated that, in addition, more than 200 solar collectors, over 3,000 energy-efficient streetlights, 20 electric vehicle charging stations, and "smart" bus stops have been put into operation.
He noted that energy efficiency principles are rigorously applied, particularly in the construction of residential and public buildings.
"These measures are sustainable, and all our efforts are focused on transforming the liberated areas into exemplary regions in energy efficiency through the widespread application of innovative practices," he said.
