Overview Eighty-four percent of Kazakhstan''s electricity is generated from fossil fuels, with hydropower accounting for 12 percent and less than two percent generation from solar and wind
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 2035, twice as much as the government is currently planning – or even more.
Eighty-four percent of Kazakhstan's electricity is generated from fossil fuels, with hydropower accounting for 12 percent and less than two percent generation from solar and wind installations as of 2019. Coal, produced in the northern regions, is used to power more than 70% of the country's electricity generation.
In addition, the Chairman of Kazakhstan's national electricity generator, Samruk-Energo, has stated that Kazakhstan plans to install 14 GW of new power generating capacity by 2030.
Wind Power: For the development of wind energy potential, the Government of Kazakhstan, with the support of the United Nations Development Program, has developed a program of wind energy development thru 2030. The framework of this program provides for the implementation of wind farm construction with the introduction of 2,000 MW by 2030.
