The first auctions for the selection of energy waste disposal projects in the Republic of Kazakhstan were successfully held on the trading platform of JSC KOREM
For the first time in the history of our country, international auctions were held on July 15 of this year for the selection of projects for energy waste disposal with a total capacity of 100.8 MW.
In 2020, Kazakhstan adopted the first legislative initiatives providing for stimulating measures for energy waste disposal. These changes affected the norms of the legislation of the Republic of Kazakhstan in the field of ecology and energy, which suggest the possibility of implementing the WASTE-TO-ENERGY project by processing municipal solid waste (MSW) into energy. The existing technologies for their incineration in the world are safe for the environment.
In order to increase the investment attractiveness of the new sector for energy waste disposal and create an integrated waste management infrastructure, it is planned to use a similar mechanism operating in the field of renewable energy sources.
