Energy is one of the most important foundation in growth of a city. Kabul’s demand is 620 MW , but the government can only provide 363.5 MW, and its conventional electrical system is associated with problems like limited interaction, non- or one-way communication, limited power flow control, and cas-cading outages.
Kabul has 363.6 MW (approximately 243.5 MW from Uzbekistan, 70 MW from hydro energy and 50 MW from thermal energy) to meet 620 MW in demand, a shortage of 256.5 MW. 638,607 customers are con-nected to a traditional grid and its limitations .

Wind Energy: Kabul experiences prevailing winds from the northwest direction with average speeds between 3.1 and 5.4 m/s . It is esti-mated that Kabul has 41 MW wind capacity . Based on the geography and the strategic devel-opment areas in Kabul, two sites are considered ideal for wind energy development.
The cost of electric vehicles is similar to die-sel/petrol cars but without problematic emissions and savings of energy and money. In Kabul, one in every 10 people owns a private car, and the cost to convert 370,577 fuel cars to electric vehicles would cost about $3 billion .
