On August 15, 2024, Zhomart Mominbayev, Partner at "TechnoGroupService" LLP, visited the ORDA GLASS sheet glass production plant in the Kyzylorda region. The purpose of the visit was to discuss the possibility of an annual purchase of up to 600,000 sheets of ultra-clear, anti-glare tempered glass, 3.2 mm thick, intended for use at the TGS-Solar photovoltaic module production plant, which is scheduled to launch at the end of this year.

ORDA GLASS confirmed its readiness to consider adapting its production processes to meet TGS's requirements. This would involve fine-tuning the production line and initiating the glass tempering process. The collaboration between TGS and ORDA GLASS opens up new opportunities for the development of local production and the increase of Kazakhstani content in TGS-Solar photovoltaic modules. It also highlights the companies' commitment to supporting the national economy and strengthening the local industry. TGS is further committed to developing partnerships and introducing innovations aimed at enhancing the competitiveness of domestic production.

By order of the Minister of Energy of the Republic of Kazakhstan No. 277 dated August 6, 2024, a Working Group was established to support domestic producers in the field of renewable energy sources (RES). The Chairman of the Supervisory Board of LLP "TechnoGroupService" Zhomart Mominbayev, along with representatives of key government bodies and relevant public associations, was included in the Working group.

Previously, "TechnoGroupService" repeatedly submitted proposals to the NCE "Atameken" and the Ministry of Industry and Construction of the Republic of Kazakhstan on optimizing legislation for domestic producers on issues such as financial support, the electricity market, and export financing.

At the first meeting of the Working Group, held on August 8, 2024, Zhakyb Khairushev, Managing Director of NCE RK - Director of the Department of Energy and Housing and Utilities, expressed an active position on behalf of NCE "Atameken". The speaker stressed the urgent need to adopt fiscal and sectoral measures to support domestic producers. In his speech, Zh. Khairushev cited the example of Turkey, which successfully protects local equipment manufacturers for PV modules.

LLP "TechnoGroupService" expresses gratitude to NCE "Atameken" and personally to Zhakyb Khairushev for their balanced and professional position. We hope that the results of the Working Group of the Ministry of Energy of the Republic of Kazakhstan will bring concrete outcomes and not remain merely a formal statement.
