Masdar begins construction of 1GW wind farm in Kazakhstan

Masdar, in partnership with W Solar and others, has begun construction on a 1GW wind farm in Kazakhstan's Zhambyl region, along with a 600MWh battery energy storage system to stabilize the local power grid. This project is one of the largest in Central Asia to combine wind power with battery storage and is expected to power around 880,000 homes while avoiding 2.5 million tonnes of CO2 emissions annually. Additionally, Masdar has signed a road map agreement with Kazakhstan's Ministry of Artificial Intelligence and Digital Development for the country's first round-the-clock clean energy project.
