The secured gas supply of 10,000 m³ per hour supports the reliable generation of approximately 40 MW of electricity, based on an average consumption rate of 250 m³ of gas per MW for modern gas reciprocating generator systems.
Existing On-Site Infrastructure
The site benefits from established infrastructure, including:
Fiber-optic communication lines (FOCL)
Water supply systems
Auxiliary power supply
Prepared access roads
Scalability & Expansion Potential
The project offers significant scalability opportunities, supported by a clear development roadmap to increase gas supply limits and expand generation capacity to up to 100 MW through the development of adjacent sites.
Key Investment Highlights
01
Total CAPEXApproximately US$158 million
02
Exceptional Wind ResourceAverage wind speed of 8.5 m/s, supporting strong energy yields
03
High Capacity FactorEstimated at 49% (P50) and 44% (P75), reflecting robust project economics
04
Long-Term Revenue VisibilitySecured through a 20-year Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) between the buyer and the Company
05
Preliminary TariffUS$0.029/kWh expected in 2027
06
Attractive ReturnsProjected return on equity (ROE) of up to 15%
Strong Demand Fundamentals
The Company is among Kazakhstan's largest electricity producers and the country's single largest electricity consumer, currently accounting for approximately 17% of national electricity generation. The Company's ferroalloy operations are expected to serve as the primary off-taker for the project's power output, ensuring a stable and predictable demand profile.
Investment Opportunity
An opportunity to invest in a strategically significant renewable energy project in Kazakhstan, combining premium wind resources, long-term contracted revenues, strong industrial off-take, and attractive risk-adjusted returns.
Electricity Generation Cost
01
Total Electricity Generated28.8 million kWh per month
02
Final Cost per kWh12.75 KZT (~US$0.028/kWh)
This cost structure positions the project among the most cost-competitive locations globally for energy-intensive computing applications, including AI, HPC, and cryptocurrency mining.
