Other important details

The project is linked to an earlier 160-MW combined-cycle gas plant currently under development in Aktau, which is expected to begin operations in 2027. That project is implemented by the same investor consortium and is intended to address electricity shortages and improve grid reliability in western Kazakhstan. The earlier plant has an estimated investment value of around USD 190–210 million
