Private consumption, government spending, and investment have all continued to increase but at slower rates. Exports, which had been growing over 35% annually, declined sharply in 2009. ENI has played a major role in Kazakhstan's oil and gas industry through projects like Karachaganak and Kashagan and continues working to develop the country's energy resources.

Report summary on Intended Nationnally determined contributions -Comprehensiv...RCREEE
This document provides a summary of Intended Nationally Determined Contributions (INDCs) and Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) from 20 Arab countries. It finds that these plans outline both unconditional and higher conditional emission reduction targets. Cost estimates total over $109 billion, with 71% of costs listed as conditional on international support. Adaptation actions are generally lower cost than mitigation and focus on sectors beyond energy. Countries' plans emphasize renewable energy development as well as energy efficiency across sectors. Water desalination and carbon capture storage are mentioned in relation to these areas. Overall, the plans indicate ambitions to increase clean energy and jobs while reducing emissions, though voluntary targets may need to become mandatory with regional coordination.

Arab Region Progress in Sustainable Energy Challenges and OpportunitiesRCREEE
The document summarizes the current status of sustainable energy in the Arab region and key challenges. Near-universal electricity access has been achieved in cities, but rural access remains around 80%. Energy consumption has more than doubled since 1990, with renewables playing a marginal role at 4% of energy. Barriers to expanding renewable energy and energy efficiency include high costs, lack of incentives, and insufficient policies. Universal access to electricity and clean cooking fuels has not been achieved. Water scarcity and dependence on fossil fuels are significant regional challenges. Promoting investments, technology, capacity building, and data are priorities to meet development and climate goals.
