BAKU, Azerbaijan, October 2. Masdar is closely
monitoring opportunities to expand renewable energy infrastructure
across Central Asia, Maryam Al Mazrouei, Head of Business
Development and Investment for the CIS region at Masdar, said at
the KAZENERGY Forum in Astana, Trend reports.
“When it comes to the region, I would also like to touch on the
region, since we’ve been clearly working on this region for quite
some time. There are a lot of areas of energy infrastructure we
must see as promising areas, one of which, of course, I’ve
mentioned, is solar and wind,” Al Mazrouei said.
She emphasized the abundance of untapped resources in Central
Asia that could meet both domestic demand and support energy
exports. “There are a lot of resources in the region that can be
tapped and unlocked, not only to satisfy the domestic demand,” she
Al Mazrouei also highlighted ongoing regional collaboration. “We
have seen the collaboration across the front region. There are
already talks between Azerbaijan, Uzbekistan, and Kazakhstan to
connect the grid infrastructure for the purpose of exporting clean
energy,” she said.
