The funding will come from the World Bank's International Development Association, while an additional $43 million has been pledged by the Green Climate Fund, a South Korea-based group that supports renewables projects across the world. Uzbekistan will use most of the money for renewables projects to produce 1,500 MW, mostly from wind and solar, in collaboration with the private sector.
