Senior management of one of Türkiye's largest energy groups came to Astana to discuss a large renewable energy project in Kazakhstan. I took part in the meeting together with the leadership of one of the country's regions.

Turkish companies know the region, build fast and are comfortable with risk. What they ask first is predictable: grid connection, the tariff and who buys the power. Those three answers decide whether a renewable project moves from a sketch on the table to financing.
