On preparing the economy and the population of Jalal-Abad Region for the 2026/2027 autumn-winter season
On monitoring compliance with electricity consumption limits: against the 743.2 million kWh limit approved for the Jalal-Abad Electric Networks utility for April-August 2026, 690.7 million kWh were used, saving 52.5 million kWh.
For the region's population, 21,040 tonnes of coal have been stockpiled out of the 207.8 thousand tonnes required across the districts and cities, or 10.1%. There are 186 coal retail outlets in the region. Coal prices are monitored by the relevant authorities. There is no coal shortage and no sharp price increase.
Social sector: for the 2026/2027 season, 4,359.2 tonnes of coal (17.1%) have been delivered to the region's education institutions out of the 25,521.6 tonnes required. Healthcare has received 1,011.5 tonnes (23%) of the 4,390.7 tonnes required. Deliveries are to be completed by 15 September this year.
Repair works at the 45 municipal boiler houses of the district heating utilities are 90% complete.
Under the coal procurement tenders for the municipal heating utilities, contracts have been signed by the cities of Manas (2,523 t) and Kara-Kul (625 t); tenders have been announced elsewhere and contracts are being concluded. Fuel oil is supplied under direct contracts with Kyrgyzneftegaz: contracts have been signed by the utilities of Manas (3,000 t), Kochkor-Ata (400 t) and Mailuu- and Mailuu-Suu (2,700 t).
Through the mass media, the public is being informed about saving energy, preparing fuel for the coming heating season in good time, and switching from electric heating to alternative sources (coal, gas, fuel oil) before the 2026/2027 season.
Social coal depots are being set up across the districts and cities: four in Toktogul, two in Toguz-Toro and one in Aksy. The remaining districts and cities will open theirs shortly.
Instructions have been issued to ensure full coal deliveries to stationary fuel depots and retail outlets during the 2026/2027 season, and to create additional depots in settlements that have none.
Preparations for the autumn-winter season are reported to be fully under way.
