The Head of State was informed about the beginning of Pre-FEED under the Investment Agreement signed during the visit of the President of the European Council Charles Michel to Kazakhstan last year.
The project involves the construction and operation of a desalination plant, a 40 GW renewable energy plant (wind, solar) and a 20 GW water electrolysis plant with an annual production capacity of 2 million tonnes of green hydrogen or 11 million tonnes of green ammonia. The preliminary investment amount is more than €50bn.
