August 11, 2026 |

In Kazakhstan, The Astana Times reported that Kazakhstan took a step toward entering the emerging market for sustainable aviation fuel after signing a memorandum with Hong Kong-based Full Vision Capital to explore building an integrated production ecosystem in Alatau, a project that could position the country within the global aviation industry’s decarbonization efforts.

The memorandum outlines plans to study the creation of a complete SAF value chain from cultivating agricultural feedstock to processing and producing aviation fuel. The partners will also assess opportunities to deploy smart energy technologies and nickel-hydrogen energy storage systems to support renewable energy integration, according to the report.

The agreement brings together the Alatau City Authority, Kazakhstan’s Ministries of Energy, Agriculture and Transport, and Full Vision Capital under the Green Kazakhstan initiative.
