Is Kazakhstan adopting renewable energy?
Kazakhstan's new leadership, faced with concurrent challenges of volatile oil prices and the coronavirus pandemic, has approved nineteen new renewable energy projects worth $1.1 billion. This is the country’s latest effort to go green and diversify its energy supply.
Why is Kazakhstan so energy-intensive?
Kazakhstan’s economy is highly energy-intensive and uses two to three times more energy than the average for OECD countries. Electricity in Kazakhstan is generated by 155 power plants of various forms of ownership.
Could Kazakhstan increase its wind power capacity by ?
4 Kazakhstan’s vast and cost-efficient wind energy potential offers a particularly strong foundation for scaling up renewable energy capacity. The country could increase its wind power capacity to 10 gigawatts by , twice as much as the government is currently planning – or even more.
Will Kazakhstan reduce power sector emissions by 35 percent by ?
By increasing the share of renewables to 35 percent by , Kazakhstan could reduce power sector emissions by 4 percent compared to while lowering system costs by 40 percent compared to current plans.
Should Kazakhstan introduce a carbon price?
Introducing a carbon price of at least USD 30 per tonne of CO2 is required to trigger investment in renewables and reduce power sector emissions. This exercise marks our first effort to model power system in Kazakhstan. While the current model has several limitations, it serves as a foundation that will be further refined and expanded.
