Özet:

Kazakhstan is rich in fossil resources such as coal, oil, natural gas and uranium and has significant renewable energy potential such as wind, solar, hydropower and biomass. But despite its high renewable energy potential, Kazakhstan is highly dependent on fossil fuels for energy production. Coal-fired power plants account for 75% of the total energy production in the country. In addition, Kazakhstan ranks first in the world in terms of greenhouse gas emissions to GDP as 3.38 kg greenhouse gas emissions per dollar of GDP. Therefore, the use of fossil fuels raises concerns about their impact on human health and the environment due to greenhouse gas emissions. In this context, renewable energy sources are becoming an increasingly attractive option to close the world's energy supply gap and reduce national greenhouse gas emissions. In this study, various factors preventing the spread of renewable energy technologies in Kazakhstan were reviewed. Low electricity tariffs in Kazakhstan prevents the development of renewable energy sources, transmission losses, and inefficient and old technologies, weak regulatory and legal frameworks, as well as high-risk business environments there are factors such as. The study suggested potential measures to overcome these obstacles
