Kazakhstan is ramping up its commitment to renewable energy, with plans to launch 93 new projects totaling 2.3 GW by 2030, as part of a broader strategy to boost clean energy production and attract international investment.
Kazakhstan plans to commission 93 renewable energy projects with a total capacity of 2.3 GW by 2030, as part of its broader energy strategy through 2035, which targets at least 8.4 GW of clean energy. Prime Minister Olzhas Bektenov shared the plan during a recent Energy Council meeting.
Currently, the country operates 154 renewable facilities—covering wind, solar, hydro, and biogas—with over 3 GW of capacity. In 2024, they produced 7.6 billion kWh of electricity, and nine more projects are set to launch in 2025.
Deputy Energy Minister Sungat Yessimkhanov said Kazakhstan has already surpassed its earlier targets, with renewables reaching 6.4% of electricity generation by the end of 2024.
The government supports the sector with incentives like guaranteed purchases, indexed pricing, grid fee exemptions, and investment perks. Bektenov called for stronger support, transparent policies, scientific oversight, and fewer administrative barriers to attract private sector investment and keep up the momentum.
