From vast steppes to buzzing cities, Kazakhstan is harnessing the power of water—and China is playing a key role. 💧 Since 2006, the Turgusun and Moinak Hydropower Projects, led by China Communications Construction Group, have transformed the country's energy landscape. Think of it as a real-life 'SimCity' upgrade—but with clean energy goals and cross-border teamwork!
'These projects are about more than megawatts,' said Wang Haihuai, president of the company, in a chat with CGTN’s He Jingyi. 'They’re bridges of collaboration, powering homes and creating jobs.' 🌱 Over 500 local workers were employed during construction, and the plants now generate enough electricity to light up thousands of households annually.
For young professionals eyeing Central Asia’s green transition, this partnership is a case study in sustainable growth. Kazakhstan aims to hit 50% renewable energy by 2050—and hydropower is a big piece of that puzzle. Plus, with China’s Belt and Road Initiative fueling infrastructure projects globally, this could be just the start. 🚀
Students and eco-enthusiasts, take note: Innovations here might soon ripple across borders. Will more nations tap into hydropower’s potential? Stay tuned! ⚡
