Today, Prime Minister Olzhas Bektenov chaired a meeting of the Council for the Transition to a Green Economy under the President of the Republic of Kazakhstan. The agenda included issues of waste management, the implementation of the "Taza Kazakhstan" concept, and improving energy efficiency in industry and construction. Murat Ergeshbayev, Akim of the region, participated in the meeting via videoconference.
The region is systematically working to improve energy efficiency and reduce environmental impacts as part of the Green Economy Transition Concept.
Last year, modern energy-saving technologies were introduced in 280 km of electrical networks and 87 substations. This year, modernization of 605 km of electrical networks and 190 substations continues. Additionally, 8.7 km of heating networks have been upgraded and covered with special insulating materials. This has significantly reduced losses in the heating system.
Developing renewable energy sources is also a priority in the region. A five-day power plant with a total capacity of 148 megawatts is currently operating. The launch of one wind farm and three solar power plants is planned for the future.
In the first quarter of this year, 17 waste management facilities collected 67,000 tons of solid municipal waste, of which 23,000 tons were recycled. Nine projects aimed at waste sorting, recycling, and disposal are being implemented with funding from Zhasyl Damu JSC.
To attract investment in the industry and implement advanced technologies, two major investment projects are being implemented with the participation of international companies. Specifically, a plant for sorting, recycling, and disposal of 300,000 tons of solid municipal waste per year using South Korean technology is being built, as well as a plant for the production of 240 million glass containers per year using German technology. These initiatives contribute to increasing the share of waste recycling, import substitution, and improving the environmental situation in the region.
