There is enormous potential for renewable energy in Kazakhstan, particularly from wind and small hydropower plants. The Republic of Kazakhstan has the potential to generate 10 times as much power as it currently needs from wind energy alone. But renewable energy accounts for just 0.6 percent of all power installations. Of that, 95 percent comes from small hydropower projects. The main barriers to investment in renewable energy are relatively high financing costs and an abse

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.
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.
In order to overcome its electricity challenges, and reduce the country’s emissions, Kazakhstan’s policy is now based on promoting a more decentralised, balanced and environmentally friendly energy supply system, which will include a range of renewable resources.
In particular, according to the Plan of Activities for Alternative and Renewable Energy in Kazakhstan, it is planned to put into operation about 28 solar energy projects until the end of 2020 with total installed capacity of 713.5 MW. The European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD) financed two solar parks in Kazakhstan.
