Background

In January 2024, KazMunayGas and Eni signed an agreement in Rome, Italy, for the construction of a hybrid power plant in the city of Zhanaozen, in the Mangistau region. In March 2024, the parties discussed the status of the project, where wind (77 MW), solar energy (50 MW) and gas (120 MW) are planned to all be used in the energy mix.[2][7]

The construction of the plant was included into the "2035 Electric Power Industry Development Plan" released by the Ministry of Energy of Kazakhstan in February 2024.[8] In July 2024, the project was listed in the "National Infrastructure Plan of the Republic of Kazakhstan until 2029". According to the document, the project will be implemented in 2024-2026. The cost of implementation is estimated at KZT 135.9 billion.[9]

The construction of the plant began in July 2024. A hybrid project of this type will be the first to be implemented in Kazakhstan.[10]
