There are now about 1,000 electric vehicle charging stations in Kazakhstan, up from a quarter a few months ago. In addition, the number of companies engaged in the installation of charging piles has increased by five times. How profitable is the industry, and has the surge in charging stations affected Kazakhstan's already scarce electricity supply?

Electric cars first arrived in Kazakhstan a year and a half ago. According to the latest data, the number of electric vehicles in Kazakhstan has increased nine-fold in the past year to nearly 9,000. Most of them are registered in the cities of Almaty, Astana, Almaty Oblast and Shymkent. It should be noted that statistics do not include hybrid cars that can use both fuel and electric automobiles. There are more than 400,000 such models in Kazakhstan. 

Bakhytzhan Tasanbayev, head of the charging pile enterprise, said that out of a total of 4.5 million vehicles visa-free, 10,000 electric vehicles is still a drop in the ocean. So it's more of a start-up with an eye to the future.

In the new draft electricity transmission law, the installation of charging piles is removed from the concept of "power supply". Therefore, no license is required to develop this business. There are charging stations in big cities and on national highways. This provides convenience for owners of electric vehicles, while at the same time, the cost is much lower than gasoline.

Electric car owners, mir, JiYaTuo husband (Temirlan Ziyatov) said: for myself - for example, last year I took notes -- worthSome experts claim that the development of environmentally friendly means of transportation may affect the problem of electricity supply. Experts Seth quinn o ur, nazarbayev (Aset Nauryzbayev) expresses, this is the department of energy's problem, kazakhstan today not only need to increase capacity, also need to improve the transmission capacity. At present, there are still systematic power outages and other phenomena in Kazakhstan, which are problems that must be solved for the stable operation of charging piles.
