Combating corruption in government bodies: a priority task for a just society 11.12.2025
        Corruption remains a key problem hindering societal development, undermining citizens' trust in government institutions, and negatively impacting the economy. Combating this phenomenon is not simply a matter of course, but a strategic necessity for building a just state.In Kurchatov, we strictly adhere to a zero-tolerance policy toward any manifestations of corruption. Government agencies must demonstrate absolute transparency, honesty, and accountability to citizens. In this regard, the Akimat is implementing modern anti-corruption mechanisms, including the digitalization of government services and strengthening oversight.Digitalization is one effective way to combat corruption. The introduction of electronic government services minimizes the human factor, reduces bureaucratic barriers, and reduces the potential for corruption. Online services, ensuring the prompt and transparent provision of government services, are already being actively used in Kurchatov.An important area is creating conditions for direct dialogue between the government and the public. Regular reporting to citizens, public hearings, and citizen receptions allow residents to directly receive clarification on pressing issues. We believe that the higher the level of trust between society and the state, the fewer opportunities for corruption.One of the key aspects of the fight against corruption is cultivating a high level of legal awareness among civil servants. In this regard, the city of Kurchatov regularly conducts training seminars, professional development courses, and workshops on ethics and legality. Every government employee must understand their responsibility to society.An effective fight against corruption is impossible without the active participation of citizens. We urge city residents to be vigilant, report potential cases of corruption, and participate in fostering an anti-corruption culture in society.Source : https://www.gov.kz/memleket/entities/abay-kurchatov/press/news/details/1124024?lang=kk

The new platform is designed to connect education, science, industry, and entrepreneurship.The university aims not merely to introduce technologies, but to shape a new approach in which artificial intelligence serves society, the economy, and the development of cities. At AlmaU, this evolves into the concept of «Tolyq AI», derived from the philosophy of Abai’s «Tolyq Adam» – an artificial intelligence model developed under the guidance of ethics, humanity, and social purpose.«Artificial intelligence is a powerful engine, but not a compass. The direction is still set by humans. We are not afraid that artificial intelligence will replace people. We are afraid of people who work like robots. AlmaU trains creators, not executors», noted AlmaU’s founder and president Assylbek Kozhakhmetov in his opening remarks.The first task of the new Center is to update education and strengthen the university’s research capacity. AI platforms Oqulabs and Delicatest, developed by Professors Timur Bakibayev and Kuan ysh Abeshev, have already been integrated into AlmaU’s academic programs. These platforms automate the assessment of complex assignments, analyze student behavior to detect dishonesty, and provide objective performance analytics.The research foundation of the Center has been formed within targeted and grant-funded projects, including programs on technological diversification and digital transformation of the agricultural sector. Through these projects, AlmaU Labs has been equipped with two mini-supercomputers provided by ASUS and ZERDE Business Solutions.The second key objective is collaboration with the public sector and addressing the needs of the real economy. The first pilot project is being implemented with JSC «Kostanay Minerals». The team developed an AI model for predicting ore moisture levels, which has shown significant economic impact during testing and demonstrated strong potential for production process optimization. AlmaU Labs is also ready to develop solutions for transport, environmental protection, urban safety, and resource management.«This center has tremendous potential for developing practical solutions for Almaty. Next year, together with AlmaU, we plan to create several successful products to improve the urban environment, with a focus on fostering AI-driven startups», stated Olzhas Zhanabek, Head of the Digitalization Department of the city of Almaty.The third area of focus is entrepreneurship development. Students from across Kazakhstan will be able to create their own AI products, participate in startup competitions, take part in acceleration programs, access partner data and funding, and implement their solutions in companies and public institutions.As part of the opening ceremony, AlmaU signed memorandums of cooperation with Almaty HUB, the Almaty City Akimat, Teachers Lab, and Tech People Community. The event also featured a panel discussion on the future of artificial intelligence in education, «AI in Education». Participants discussed the role of ethical AI applications, the digitalization of educational processes, the training of specialists, and the importance of international standards in shaping the future of the education system.The opening of the AlmaU AI Lab represents a significant step toward advancing the educational, research, public-sector, and entrepreneurial ecosystem in Kazakhstan. This initiative accelerates the country’s digital transformation and contributes to the creation of a new educational landscape aligned with international standards.Source : https://www.gov.kz/memleket/entities/sci/press/news/details/1124000?lang=kk

The first solar power plant has been launched in Kostanay region 11.12.2025
A historic event in the field of energy development of the region took place in Kostanay region — the first solar power plant with a capacity of 22.6 MW, built by JSC Varvarinskoye, was commissioned in the area of B. Mailina. The project was implemented in accordance with the instructions of the President of the Republic of Kazakhstan to increase the volume of renewable energy and increase the share of "green" generation in the national energy system.The ceremonial launch of the facility was given by Akim of the region Kumar Aksakalov, emphasizing the importance of a new stage in the modernization of regional energy:"The launch of these power plants will significantly reduce the shortage of energy resources, create favorable conditions for attracting new investments and implementing major projects. Green energy is becoming a symbol of renewal, innovation and responsibility for the future of our region," said the head of the region.The region's first solar power plant: contribution to the economy and ecologyThe new solar power plant was built using modern technologies and highly efficient panels. This is the first facility of this scale in Kostanay region. The plant's capacity is 22.6 MW, which will provide electricity to thousands of households and enterprises in the region.The project has become a significant investment: 7.2 billion tenge has been invested in it, and 16 new jobs have been created on a permanent basis. Using solar energy will significantly reduce energy costs and reduce dependence on external sources. The production of clean energy will reduce the load on the traditional energy system and reduce carbon dioxide emissions, making the project an important contribution to environmental protection.Vitaly Nesis, Chief Executive Officer of Solidcore Resources, noted that the construction of the plant has become part of the company's decarbonization strategy.:"We strive to minimize the environmental impact of our production and at the same time increase its energy efficiency. The new solar power plant gives us this opportunity. It has become our contribution to the development of Kostanay region and an example of how responsible production can be innovative."More than 36,000 solar panels with a total area of over 98,000 m2 have been installed as part of the project. The annual output of the plant will be about 28.5 million kWh.Energy transition: the region accelerates the pace of developmentKazakhstan is consistently modernizing the energy system, and Kostanay region plays a key role in this process. Today, the region consumes 0.45 GW of electricity, while it produces only 0.12 GW. At the same time, 37% of its own generation is provided by two operating wind farms in Arkalyk and Kostanay region.The akim of the region emphasized:"Our goal is not just to increase the volume of electricity production, but also to create a sustainable, environmentally friendly energy system that will ensure the development of the region for many years to come."Six major renewable energy projects: the region is fully supplied with energyThis year, Kostanay region is implementing 6 major projects on the introduction of alternative energy in the amount of 560 billion tenge. Among them are four wind farms, solar and gas—piston power plants.Their commissioning will increase the volume of own electricity generation by 10 times — from 0.12 to 1.2 GW, which will completely cover the needs of the region.Of these six projects, two are being implemented by JSC Varvarinskoye:solar power Plant (SES),gas-piston power plant (GPP).Gas-piston power plant: a new stage of energy sustainabilityIn October of this year, construction of a 40 MW gas-piston power plant worth 14.3 billion tenge was started. After commissioning, the station will become an important element of maneuverable generation, ensuring the stability of the power system during peak loads.Both projects are implemented at the expense of the company's own funds.The electricity generated by the gas station will compensate for the instability of solar generation, providing the region's needs at night, in the morning and in the evening. The GPP will also provide regulating power to the KEGOC JSC system operator during peak hours, which will help smooth out possible imbalances in the energy system.This is one of the first projects in Kazakhstan to combine green energy and balancing maneuverable generation.Innovation and development: the region is moving forwardThe launch of new renewable energy facilities not only reduces the shortage of electricity, but also creates conditions for attracting investment, developing industry and strengthening the energy independence of the region.The first solar power plant in Kostanay region has become a symbol of innovation, technological progress and responsibility for the region's future.Source : https://www.gov.kz/memleket/entities/kostanay/press/news/details/1123865?lang=kk
