The rapid development of renewable energy sources has become one of the main priorities for sustainable economic growth and environmental protection. Solar photovoltaic (PV) power plants are widely used due to their environmental friendliness, low operating costs, and long service life. This study analyzes the technical parameters and economic indicators of a 510 kW solar photovoltaic power plant installed at Karshi State University in Uzbekistan. The analysis focuses on the performance of solar panels, electricity generation efficiency, and economic benefits obtained from renewable energy utilization. The research evaluates the installed capacity, energy output, system efficiency, and financial savings resulting from reduced electricity consumption from the grid. The findings indicate that the solar station significantly reduces operational energy costs and contributes to sustainable energy development. According to available data, the solar power system installed at Karshi State University produces approximately 152,880 kWh of electricity per month, saving about 153 million UZS in energy costs and generating an annual economic benefit of approximately 734 million UZS. The results demonstrate that solar power plants installed in educational institutions can serve not only as a sustainable energy source but also as a research and training platform for students and engineers. Furthermore, the economic analysis confirms that renewable energy investments are economically viable in regions with high solar radiation such as southern Uzbekistan.
