Promotion of alternative energy saving technologies is very perspective for Kazakhstan at the moment. Now electricity is generated by traditional energy sources. Electric power industry constructed in 50 and 70th of XX century, are now physically ( ... )
rally exhausted. This fact may lead to that the republic will face a huge deficiency of electric power, and have to buy it additionally in Russia and Central Asian Republic, damaging its own economy.
One of the ways for transition to sustainable development is economy of natural resources. It can be reached by use of alternative renewable energy sources, and apply energy saving technology.

The long-fellow land territory of the Akmola province is 1,052 million in hectares, which is 21% of the plough lands. The most part of them is salted grounds. The yield of the salted lands is 2-3 centners per hectar of a poor quality hay. As a ( ... )
of the land degradation and pastures insufficient use, valuable feed crops are lost, only the low-grade and deleterious grammas have left.
Scientific research and industrial experience proves that productivity of the salted lands can be 3-4 times increased due to melioration process implementation. The most fundamental method that could be used is phosphogipsum application.

Zhalanash village is located in this zone with a strong wind blows, causing dusty storms. The winds carry salt from a surface of the dried bottom of the sea for greater distances, and that leads to salinization and degradations of agricultural grounds.
