Your attempt to characterize two 220MW solar plants as indicative of a "booming" industry, in a country with 18% capacity factor and a population of 33 million, is amusing at best.

I understand Bob... it's sometimes tough to see how one or two small projects fit into a trend. Especially when these projects get built so quickly.

Construction on these projects will start and end in 2022. Then onto the next round...

In the coming month, the Uzbekistan government is planning to launch a Request for Prequalification for up to 500 MW of PV power plants to be tendered out in three different regions,

Before you know it you have 8GW of clean power..

These plants also contribute to the Government’s plan to develop 8 GW of solar and wind capacity by 2030

It must be particularly hard for folks who focus on nuclear where projects take 10 years to complete. Very limited number of projects/countries to keep an eye on. Pretty simple.

Plus a lot of these solar/wind projects in developing countries get very little publicity.

For instance - this other Masdar project in Armenia was also just recently announced.

The project was described by Masdar CEO Mohamed Jameel Al Ramahi as “Armenia’s biggest utility scale solar project,” and by David Papazian, his peer at the Armenian state body, as “by far the largest single foreign investment in green energy in the region, and the second largest foreign direct investment in the history of modern Armenia.”

Thanks for the feedback Bob. I think I'll try to start putting more of these links from other countries up so that folks can see how widespread the boom actually is.
