In 2023, demand for nuclear power has “increased significantly”, according to Meirzhan Yussupov, CEO of Kazakhstan’s National Atomic Company. With around 40% of the world’s uranium production, Kazakhstan is a pillar of this energy, powering at least a third of the world’s nuclear reactors. This puts Kazatomprom at the heart of the global energy security agenda, despite global geopolitical uncertainty and discussions about market bifurcation. The company signed a major agreement with Framatome during Emmanuel Macron’s visit to Kazakhstan in November 2023.
