Kazakhstan to Triple Renewable Energy Capacity by 2035
Kazakhstan plans to commission over 8.4 GW of renewable energy by 2035, aiming to significantly expand green power generation, according to a May 22 Energy Council meeting chaired by Prime Minister Olzhas Bektenov.
Currently operating 154 renewable facilities totaling 3 GW, the country has already doubled its renewable share in electricity generation to 6.4% in 2024. By 2030, 93 new projects with 2.3 GW capacity are planned, with auctions approved for 6.7 GW.
The government is offering robust support, including guaranteed power purchases and tax incentives, to attract international investment and meet green transition goals.
