Pioneering solar power in Azerbaijan
Building up a solar business in an oil country in Central Asia in 2012 does not necessarily have the greatest odds for success. What’s the secret? Passion for solar energy, yes. But more importantly, passion for the people and a sense of calling.Through the years so many different people has contributed to make the vision of Provitaz come to life. Timing was also on our side. Back in 2012 most people did not believe solar energy would have a significant role in Azerbaijans energy mix. But today Azerbaijan aims to reach 30% from renewable before 2030. Claiming they have potential of 23GW solar energy within its borders. Hence government has always been suportive to our efforts.
