Success Story

Total Eren
In 2020, the Nomad Solar solar power plant with a capacity of 28 MW was commissioned in the Zhalagash district of the Kyzylorda region.

The investor in the project is the French company Total Eren. The project is partially financed by a loan from the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development.

Work on the construction of the power plant began in July 2019 with the signing of a turnkey design, procurement and construction (EPC) contract with the Greek company METKA EGN.

The station is located near the village of Zhalagash. The area of ​​the occupied site of the SES is 164 hectares. On this territory, 83,592 photovoltaic panels, 8 central inverter power plants, as well as a substation with an operating voltage of 220/35 kV are installed. The SES uses single-axis systems for orienting panels to the sun.

The estimated annual electricity output of the solar power plant is 49 million kWh per year, which is enough to meet the needs of more than 8,700 people. In addition, the solar power plant will reduce annual greenhouse gas emissions into the atmosphere by 45.4 thousand tons.

The sole purchaser of electricity is the Settlement and Financial Center for Support of Renewable Energy Sources LLC, with which a purchase agreement has been concluded for 15 years.

During the construction of the Nomad Solar solar power plant, local specialists in the amount of up to 60 people and contractors were involved. In addition, 10 permanent jobs were created for the maintenance of the station.

The implementation of the "green economy" project allowed attracting foreign investment to the region, creating jobs, partially covering the electricity deficit, and reducing greenhouse gas emissions.

Kazakhstan has set itself the ambitious task of increasing the share of renewable energy sources (RES) in the total volume of electricity production to 10% by 2030. To implement this task, an auction mechanism is used to select the most effective projects for the construction of renewable energy facilities, taking into account advanced global experience.

Recall that renewable energy is included in the list of priority activities for which investment preferences are provided. The national company "KAZAKH INVEST" assists investors in "green" energy projects to participate in auctions by organizing training webinars, concluding investment contracts and supporting projects.
