China helps Kazakhstan build solar power plants

On Sep. 26, 2024, Azhur, a Kazakhstani company from Shymkent, won a contract to construct a 20-MW solar power plant by offering a bid significantly lower than the starting price. However, the company owned by Anuarbek Karamanov primarily specializes in fruit harvesting and horse breeding.

Modernising Kazakhstan''s coal-dependent power sector through

Kazakhstan, with its vast territory, holds immense potential for the development of cheap solar and wind energy. As of mid-2023, the country had a share of 5% variable renewable generation (vRES) in its power mix. The national objective is to elevate this proportion to 15% by 2030. Our research shows that significantly higher shares are realistic.

The road ahead for Kazakhstan''s power sector: modernising

Kazakhstan can quadruple the share of variable renewable energy in its power mix to 20 percent by 2030 while minimising power system costs, a new study by Agora Energiewende finds. Accelerating the deployment of wind and solar would help the country to phase down coal and create sustainable opportunities for electrification across the heating

6 FAQs about [Kazakhstan solar power integration]

Is solar energy a viable energy source in Kazakhstan?

In 2019, another solar power plant in Kazakhstan, Saran, with a capacity of 100 MW started its operation in the Karaganda region (Satubaldina, 2020). According to the International Energy Agency (IEA), within the period of 40 years, solar energy has a potential to meet about 20-25% of the energy demand of the country.

Is Kazakhstan a good place to invest in solar power?

Kazakhstan has remarkable solar potential with a very well-designed auction system, a clear renewable capacity addition schedule, and a solid decarbonisation target. The country is now also including storage systems as part of its public procurement strategy in a move that will ease further integration of renewables into the grid.

How many solar power plants are there in Kazakhstan?

Solar Power: The potential of solar energy in Kazakhstan is estimated at 2.5 billion kWh per year. Solar energy can be widely used in two-thirds of Kazakhstan’s territory. The government aimed to put 28 solar power plants into operation by the end of 2021, and met this goal, with currently 51 solar power plants in operation.

Will solar power meet the highest electricity demand in Kazakhstan?

Solar power generation in renewables energy is expected to meet the highest electricity demand on Kazakhstan's power grid. As of 2018, the solar power generation was 0.1 TWh and the installed capacity was 209 MW. Indian solar PV EPC Company Sterling and Wilson expects to have 200 MW of capacity in Kazakh solar market by end of 2020.

Can solar power drive Kazakhstan's Energy Transition?

However, Kazakhstan’s solar ambitions do not fully tap into its potential, and the technology could play a far larger role in the country’s energy transition due to its low cost and flexibility. The focus now is on leveraging solar’s comparative advantages to drive forward Kazakhstan’s decarbonisation and harness its significant solar resources.

What is Kazakhstan's First Solar power plant?

The plant is to produce solar cells using Kazakhstan’s silicon. The designed capacity of photovoltaic wafers is 50 MW with a potential to increase up to 100 MW. In 2012, the first solar power station, “Otar,” that generates 0.5 MW of energy, was also built in the Zhambyl region.
