The Shelek Wind Power Station in the Almaty region of Kazakhstan marks a significant step in clean energy. 🚀 Built through the collaborative efforts of China and Kazakhstan under the Belt and Road Initiative, this project showcases the power of international cooperation. 💡
With a first phase installed capacity of 60 megawatts and 24 wind turbines now operational, the wind farm provides clean electricity to approximately 70,000 users in the Almaty region. 🌿 This not only supports local communities but also contributes to reducing carbon dioxide emissions by 160,000 tonnes annually, promoting a greener future. 🌍✨
