Energy Storages as an Enabler of Renewable Integration in
This paper presents a scenario based assessment of energy storage systems (ESS) as a flexibility resource for Kazakhstan, using an open, replicable modeling workflow in PyPSA.
By increasing the share of renewables to 35 percent by 2035, Kazakhstan could reduce power sector emissions by 4 percent compared to 2023 while lowering system costs by 40 percent compared to current plans.
4 Kazakhstan's vast and cost-efficient wind energy potential offers a particularly strong foundation for scaling up renewable energy capacity. The country could increase its wind power capacity to 10 gigawatts by 2035, twice as much as the government is currently planning – or even more.
In Kazakhstan, CO 2 produced from Ammonia production accounts for only 0.2% (Fig. 4). Seven storage sinks from the CCS hubs are considered for CO 2 storage. The Precaspian basin, with a potential total effective storage of 602 Gt CO 2 (Abuov et al., Dec. 2020), shares three storage sinks for Atyrau, Oral, and Aktobe CCS hubs.
