Tashkent, Uzbekistan (UzDaily.com) — Ferghana region governor Khayrullo Bozorov held a meeting with Stanislav Kushnir, founder of the US company Sayat LLC, to discuss the implementation of an investment project aimed at producing alternative thermal energy through the utilization of medical waste.

During the talks, the parties reviewed organizational and technical aspects of the initiative. The regional governor emphasized the environmental importance of the project and expressed readiness of local authorities to provide comprehensive support for its implementation.

Following the meeting, instructions were issued to relevant organizations to assist investors, and an agreement was reached to accelerate the practical implementation of the project.
