KAZAKHSTAN-ZHANATAS-WIND FARM-ENGINEER
(230517) -- ZHANATAS, May 17, 2023 (Xinhua) -- Maksat Abilgaziev (C) works at the central control room of a wind power project in Zhanatas, Kazakhstan, on April 3, 2023. China and Kazakhstan are pioneers in production capacity and investment cooperation, under the framework of the synergy between the Belt and Road Initiative and Kazakhstan's "Bright Road" new economic policy. The cooperation list includes 52 projects worth a total of more than 21.2 billion U.S. dollars.
The 100-MW Zhanatas wind farm is one of the first batch of key energy projects under the China-Kazakhstan production capacity cooperation framework.
The project was put into operation in June 2021, becoming Central Asia's largest wind farm at that time, greatly alleviating the power shortage in southern Kazakhstan.
Maksat Abilgaziev, a resident of Zhanatas, had been an electrical engineer at a local phosphate mine company. He said he was impressed by the turbine, as its 60-meter-long blade covers an area as big as the London Eye observ
