Geothermal Energy Production and Marine Sustainability - project at Nazarbayev University focuses on assessing the geothermal energy potential within Kazakhstan's sedimentary basins, particularly through the study of conventional and fractured reservoirs and aquifers, such as the Oimasha granite. The project aims to evaluate the feasibility of geothermal energy production and storage, including the potential for Enhanced Geothermal Systems (EGS). This research is crucial for developing sustainable energy sources, contributing to Kazakhstan's energy transition and carbon reduction goals.
The TERESA Project ("Urban Water Resources Management: German Experience for Kazakh Cities") aims to improve water management in Kazakhstan’s cities by drawing on Germany's expertise in sustainable urban water systems. The project focuses on implementing advanced solutions for water usage, treatment, and distribution, addressing the challenges posed by rapid urbanization, climate change, and limited water resources in Kazakhstan. The goal is to promote efficient and sustainable management practices that can be adapted to the specific needs of Kazakh cities, helping to improve water security and resilience.
