Project Description
The Aktau Combined Cycle Gas Power Plant Expansion is a planned large-scale energy infrastructure project aimed at constructing two combined-cycle gas turbine (CCGT) units with a total capacity of 500 MW in Aktau, Mangystau Region, Kazakhstan. The project is being developed with the participation of the Chinese state-owned energy group China Huadian Corporation through its subsidiary Huadian Overseas Investment Co., Ltd. The plant will use natural gas and modern combined-cycle technology, which integrates gas and steam turbines to significantly increase efficiency and reduce emissions compared to conventional thermal power plants. The new generation capacity is expected to strengthen energy security in western Kazakhstan, where electricity demand has been growing due to industrial development and population growth. The project is also designed to complement existing power infrastructure at the Mangistau Atomic Energy Plant (MAEK) complex. The development forms part of Kazakhstan’s broader strategy to modernize its power generation fleet and reduce the risk of electricity shortages in the region. The project builds on an earlier 160-MW combined-cycle power plant currently under development in Aktau with the same investor group. In addition to power generation, the project may support future infrastructure such as desalination facilities and other industrial energy users. Advanced Chinese engineering technologies and operational expertise are expected to be integrated into the plant’s design and operation.

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
