RENEWABLE ENERGY

„Petkim“, a subsidiary of „SOCAR Turkey“, aims to produce 200 gigawatts of electricity per year through 17 wind turbines, Director General of „SOCAR Turkey“ Zaur Gahramanov said at a press conference for representatives of the Azerbaijani media.

According to Gahramanov, renewable energy supply has a strategic importance.

The European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD) and Kazakhstan have agreed to develop a long-term cooperation strategy to achieve carbon neutrality of the country’s power sector by 2060. The accord will further cement Kazakhstan's status as a regional renewable energy leader in Central Asia.

The roadmap for the decarbonisation strategy was signed by Kazakhstan’s Minister of Energy Nurlan Nogayev and by EBRD President Odile Renaud-Basso on March 31st, 2021, during her first visit to Central Asia’s largest state.
