Kazakhstan: Kurultai deputies discuss energy security in Kokshetau

Kurultai deputies met with workers from industrial enterprises in Kokshetau to discuss energy security. According to 24KZ, the participants addressed this issue during the meeting.

The country plans to fully close its electricity deficit in the coming years. Modern combined heat and power plants (CHPPs) will be built in several cities at once. Major changes are also expected in social infrastructure, and the state's approach to developing the regions will change fundamentally.

Kurultai deputy Askhat Rakhimzhanov gave an example: if there is no quota for children's rehabilitation, families have to travel to Astana. "Now the President is changing this approach. Instead of demanding things in Astana, we build them here, so that local staff solve the issues of child rehabilitation, healthcare and education," he said.
