Analysis
Kazakhstan recorded 2.08 terawatt-hours for primary energy from solar in 2025. That is the highest value across all 41 years on record.
The figure is up 10.2% on the previous year and up 4,408.4% over ten years.
Over the whole period, primary energy from solar in Kazakhstan peaked at 2.08 terawatt-hours in 2025 and was at its lowest, 0 terawatt-hours, in 1985.
That places Kazakhstan 52nd out of 77 countries with data for 2025, putting it in the middle of the range.
The series is highly variable year to year, so single readings are best treated with caution.
