“Energiya Joly” Podcast explores the path to sustainable energy in Central Asia. It has been launched by the EU-funded SECCA Project.
In the new episode, the host and the guest discuss how sustainable engineering solutions make it possible to construct autonomous homes, energy-efficient farms, and near-zero-emission buildings in Kazakhstan. They touch on European practices, the importance of monitoring and maintenance – and why true sustainability starts not with technology, but with a deep understanding of the building itself.
The episode guest shares insights from implementing unique projects, including the energy-efficient village “Energy City”, the country’s largest dairy farm, the world’s first net-zero energy mosque in Astana, and a fully off-grid TechnoDom store in Karagandy.
Host: Zhaksylyk Tokayev, energy and climate expert
Guest: Aleksandr Kravchenko, founder & CEO of SIG Construction
