BISHKEK, Kyrgyzstan, October 17. The data

Partnership (PPP) of Kyrgyzstan.
The agreement on consulting support for the preparation of a PPP
project to create a data processing center on renewable energy
sources was signed by the Ministry of Digital Development of
Kyrgyzstan and the Asian Development bank (ADB).
“This agreement marks a new stage of cooperation between
Kyrgyzstan and ADB aimed at accelerating digitalization and the
introduction of renewable energy sources in the country,” the

Meanwhile, the project will create one of the first data centers

preparation of a feasibility study (FS), as well as the development
of bidding documents and an overall project implementation plan.
The feasibility study will be financed by grant funds without any
state budget expenditures.

open new opportunities for private investors in the energy and
technology sectors.
