Abstract Background The transition to energy-sustainable systems is a globally accepted concept, but it implemented with various degrees of success around the world. aim this paper determine status green in five Central Asian countries (Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan, Kazakhstan, and Kyrgyz Republic) that are among highest energy consumers most vulnerable climate change. Despite notable improvement living conditions across all over past two decades, region remains underdeveloped. Economic growth based on export natural resources remittance inflows, structure economy monolithic. Main findings Upon analysing indicators for period 2000–2020, no evidence significant changes towards sustainable found. All (except Uzbekistan) have recorded an increase carbon emissions, while intensity mix almost same. While there has been visible progress reducing intensity, remain energy-intensive economies. region’s substantial potential renewable production, underutilized. Conclusions A multitude varied problems accompanies countries. market not yet liberalised, along subsidies low tariffs, discourages investments sources efficiency initiatives. high level corruption, rigid legislative institutional infrastructure, insufficient capital additional factors speed, scope, effectiveness transition. Thus far, primary focus these ensuring security. However, discernible surge (particularly from China) projects. Although change issues formally defined, goals often declarative without action plan provides concrete steps process. Strategic planing economic development includes related sectors (not only sector) paying attention socio-economic environmental prerequisites successfully implementating

Central Asia is highly vulnerable to the impacts of climate change. There is, however, a lack research on how local businesses, political elites and general public perceive need for comprehensive greening initiatives address its consequences. To account material ideational factors influencing clean energy transition in Asian petrostates, I offer an alternative analytic framework that call 'contrasting adaptation'. argue has resulted two contradictory responses at multiple levels governance: formal response broadly supportive new 'green' identities policies, informal seeks delay plans decarbonize business models continues prioritize 'old' oil gas activities through transnational networks. Drawing model actor interactions different governance, examine adaptation' – constituent policies discourse provide better theorized understanding politics Asia. use comparative analysis Kazakhstan Uzbekistan, petrostates pledged carbon neutrality, informed by documentary textual sources, analysis.
