Uzbekistan is undergoing a fundamental transition toward sustainable development by embracing green energy and digital transformation as dual pillars of its national strategy. This study explores the synergy between renewable energy deployment and digital technologies in achieving a low-carbon, efficient, and inclusive energy future. Using policy analysis and sectoral data, the research highlights key developments such as solar and wind energy projects, smart grids, and digital energy management systems. The findings show that digitalization enhances energy efficiency, facilitates transparency, and optimizes resource allocation in the renewable sector. However, challenges remain, including outdated infrastructure, skills gaps, and regulatory fragmentation. The study concludes with policy recommendations to strengthen the green-digital nexus and accelerate Uzbekistan’s transition to a resilient and innovative energy economy.
