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.
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.
At least 50% of the territory of Kazakhstan is suitable for installing solar power plants (Antonov, 2014). However, up until recently, solar resources of the country were not being used for power generation. Kazakhstan is developing solar energy technologies, namely production of photovoltaic modules using local silicon.
The Nurgisa 100 MW Solar Park is a photovoltaic power station in Qonayev, Almaty Region, Kazakhstan . The power station was commissioned in August 2019. The power station was built on a 270 hectares of land. The power station consists of 303,000 photovoltaic panels.
The Kapshagay photovoltaic power station, one of the largest single solar power projects in the Central Asian country, is a part of the China-Kazakhstan green energy cooperation initiative, jointly invested in and constructed by the Chinese company Universal Energy and Kazakh counterparts.
On top of that, most of the coal-fired power plants, operational since the Soviet Union era, are outdated, with a low level of the efficiency of energy generation. Only recently, the country started actively developing policies aimed at the development of renewable energy resources.
