Abstract
Abstract. This article explores the opportunities for implementing sustainable development principles, ecological industry, and green technologies in the Free Economic Zones (FEZ) of Uzbekistan. Special attention is given to the use of renewable energy sources, increasing energy efficiency, introducing environmentally friendly technologies, and reducing the negative impact on the environment. The role of the company "Energy Eco Sources" in developing and implementing innovative solutions for FEZs is also discussed, along with successful projects in solar energy and environmentally clean production processes. This approach contributes to the sustainable development of FEZs and creates the foundation for an environmentally safe and innovative economy in Uzbekistan.
