Wind Power Market Development Initiative - Kazakhstan

In 1999, the Government of Kazakhstan developed the Energy Sector Development Program until 2030. The main goal is to achieve power independence of Kazakhstan based on the use of the existing energy resources, by reconstructing and modernizing existing plants and by constructing and commissioning new power plants serving exclusively to replace import. In that context, the plan is also to increasingly introduce renewable energy resources into the country's energy balance.
