Recently, 2024 Central Asian Climate Change Conference, supported by World Bank Group, was held in Almaty, Kazakhstan. As the designated visiting point for the conference, UE's Kapchagay 100MWp Solar Power Plant hosted the attendees of the conference.

On the morning of May 30th, under the arrangement of the conference, 30 industry experts from Central Asian countries attended the Kapchagay 100MWp solar power plant. Through on-site visits, they gained a deeper understanding of Kazakhstan's effective achievements in addressing climate change and promoting green development.

The business leader of UE Kazakhstan company introduced the company's development achievements in Central Asia, the operation of power plant , and the impact of green electricity on the local economy and society to the visiting delegation. He stated that UE has been committed to promoting the development of clean energy and actively contributing to the green transformation of Kazakhstan and even the entire Central Asian region.

The experts visited the photovoltaic matrix and related component equipment of the power station on site, and gained a detailed understanding of the power generation principle, economic benefits, and environmental benefits of the power station. Some experts said that the power plant had a large scale and relatively low cost of electricity per kilowatt hour. After being connected to the grid, the annual power generation remains at a high level, reflecting good operational management capabilities. The power plant has also provided green electricity and carbon reduction benefits to local users, contributing to Kazakhstan's achievement of carbon neutrality goals.

The Kapchagay 100MWp solar power plant of UE is one of the largest photovoltaic power generation projects in Kazakhstan. The power plant was connected to the grid and put into operation in September 2019, achieving a breakthrough in the local large-scale new energy power station from scratch. Since its operation, the power station has provided clean, stable, and affordable green electricity to surrounding cities and industries. The annual power generation of 160 million kilowatt hours is equivalent to the annual electricity consumption of 50000 households in Kazakhstan, and it can also reduce carbon emissions by 160000 tons for the local area.
