Kyrgyzstan will get energy independence in the nearest future, Kurmanbek Bakiev President of Kyrgyzstan said Friday at a session of the Chui regional administration, news agency "24.kg" reported.
Increasing volume of water in Toktogul water reservoir and launch of Kambarata-2 hydro-power plant will, in president's view, contribute to the process. "In the next one-two years the republic will be able to export electricity to its neighbors," Bakiev said.
Besides, rotating blackouts will be stopped in 2010. "We come out of the energy crisis started in the republic two years ago," the leader added.
