On December 22, Kyrgyzstan celebrated the professional holiday of power engineers. The energy sector of Kyrgyzstan is an industry that is the driving force behind the development of our country. For many years, it has drawn energy from the waters that break through the rocks of the mountains, providing the country with light and heat. This photo report reflects the era from the founding of the industry to the present day, including the electrical network in Osh, and highlights important moments in energy.
