Poland highlights renewable energy cooperation potential with Kazakhstan - PAIH (Exclusive)

Poland's expertise in the development of renewable energy sources can be effectively utilised in Kazakhstan and other countries of Central Asia, Julia Horodecka, Head of Polish Investment and Trade Agency’s (PAIH) Foreign Trade Office in Astana told Trend.

"On the one hand, Kazakhstan remains a major producer of energy resources; on the other, it is consistently developing and implementing renewable energy sources, modernising its energy infrastructure and striving for decarbonisation and climate neutrality," she said.

Horodecka noted that in Kazakhstan, investments are planned in new generation capacity, the development of renewable energy sources, and the modernisation of transmission grids and combined heat and power plants. At the same time, the country faces challenges such as the need to modernise outdated infrastructure, increase the share of renewable energy sources, develop energy storage, and digitise the energy system.
