In a bid to bolster Kazakhstan's renewable energy sector, Masdar joins forces with the nation to develop a gigawatt-scale wind farm equipped with a state-of-the-art battery energy storage system (BESS).
Also known as Abu Dhabi Future Energy Company PJSC, Masdar has partnered with Kazakhstan Investment Development Fund (KIDF) Management Company Ltd., the Kazakhstan energy ministry, and the sovereign wealth fund Samruk-Kazyna to launch this project.
The first phase will be developed in the picturesque Jambyl region. Masdar's CEO, Mohamed Jameel, noted that the wind farm is the company's first project in Kazakhstan.
The project marks a significant move for Masdar as they continue to invest in the region. Their roadmap for the project was signed on the sidelines of the Astana International Forum in front of UAE Minister of Energy and Infrastructure Suhail Mohamed Al Mazrouei.
Kazakhstan is making strides to achieve a 50% renewables share by 2050, aiming to become carbon neutral by 2060. The success of this project could serve as a key driver for the country's sustainable future. Though this marks Masdar's initial venture into the country, they have promising developments in other Central Asian nations like Uzbekistan and Azerbaijan.
Masdar Chairman Sultan Al Jaber praised the development, explaining that the wind project would generate up to 1GW of clean electricity, cutting emissions and showing sustainable development. The 1GW wind farm, with BESS, is Masdar's first project in the country.
According to Al Ramahi, they aim to deliver a world-class wind plant and battery energy storage system that will support the country's energy transition and advance its net-zero ambitions. He expressed great excitement about delivering a world-class wind plant and BESS that support Kazakhstan's energy transition and contributes to the country's net-zero ambitions.
Kazakhstan's Ministry of Energy signed the agreement, the Kazakh Investment Development Fund (KIDF) Management Company, and the sovereign wealth fund Samruk-Kazyna, alongside Masdar and UAE Minister of Energy and Infrastructure, Suhail Mohamed Al Mazrouei. T
The Paris Agreement has set the goal of keeping the Earth's temperature from rising more than 1.5 degrees Celsius, requiring a tripling of renewable energy capacity worldwide by the decade's end. Hosting COP28 in Abu Dhabi, the UAE is deeply committed to cooperating with our international partners to increase the worldwide capacity of clean energy.
