The Kostanai region is set to increase its electricity
production tenfold. Three wind power plants with a capacity of 150 MW will be
built in the region. Over the next three years, a total of six new renewable
energy projects will be implemented, with a combined capacity of 1.2 GW. Prime
Minister Olzhas Bektenov reviewed progress on the President's directives to
develop the region's transport and energy infrastructure. He also learned about
plans to modernize the region's heating systems. Road infrastructure is also
being improved. The Center-West highway will connect Astana to the
Trans-Caspian International Transport Route via Arkalyk, Turgai, and Irgiz. The
project involves constructing a modern highway that meets international
standards, with a daily capacity of 3,000 vehicles.
«This project, implemented under the President's
instruction, is crucial for the country and the Turgai region, so it must be
handled with the utmost responsibility. Work should begin within a month and be
carried out quickly and efficiently. The new road will create business
opportunities and give a fresh boost to the region's development. Therefore, it
is essential to carry out the necessary work jointly with the ministry,» Bektenov
said.
