During an official visit to Abu Dhabi, Kazakhstan’s Foreign Minister Yermek Kosherbayev held talks with Sultan Ahmed Al Jaber, Minister of Industry and Advanced Technology, focusing on current projects and long-term opportunities for economic collaboration.
The discussions underscored the steady growth of bilateral ties.

Trade between the two countries has also shown consistent expansion, reflecting strengthening economic links.
A central topic of the meeting was a major wind power project in Kazakhstan’s Zhambyl Region. With a planned capacity of 1 GW, the initiative is set to become one of the largest renewable energy projects in Central Asia and a flagship example of strategic cooperation between the two nations.
Kazakhstan also highlighted interest in expanding cooperation into new areas such as green hydrogen, industrial localisation, and the development of value-added production chains. Officials noted that such initiatives could enhance long-term economic resilience and support sustainable growth.
The meeting concluded with a shared commitment to strengthening the strategic partnership and accelerating joint investment projects, signalling continued momentum in Kazakhstan-UAE economic relations.
