The total consumption of natural gas in the country is 517.0 million m³. The gasification work completed this year has achieved high results: in 2025, 100 km of gas pipelines were laid, and 13,530 new consumers were connected. By the end of the year, gas will be supplied to the residential area "Ak-Bosogo" in Bishkek, as well as to the villages of Novopokrovka and Voenno-Antonovka in the Chui region.
