This zone is characterized by power shortages and high prices for it.The deficit is covered by electricity transmission from the Northern Zone and theConsolidated Power System of Central Asia.• Western Zone–Mangistau, Atyrau, West Kazakhstan oblasts. Most of the projects in theoil and gas sector belong to Western oblasts.Despite the significant hydrocarbon resources, part of the needs in the electric energy iscovered by imports from Russia. In the future, to fully cover its own needs and for powerexport abroad new power generating capacities are planned to be established in the region.ABOUT THE COMPANYIntegrated Report 2012 12

CONTENTIn 2012, the increased production of electric power in relation to the planned figures wasobserved at the Company’s power plants by the amount of 701 million kW/h (2.5%), includingdue to the new equipmentand more intense boot of LLP “Ekibastuzskaya GRES-1” for 508million kW/h or 3.46%.Key performance indicators of LLP “Ekibastuzskaya GRES-1” show a decrease in fuelconsumption from 368.5g/kW/h to 368.2 g/kW/h, and an increase in installed capacityutilization index from 41.7% to 43.16%, which was achieved by increase in the averagestation load in 2012.As far as JSC “EGRES-2” is concerned, production increased from 5,968 mln kW/h to 6,134mln kW/h due to the reduced number of downtime of power generating units in the plannedand unplanned repairs. The increase in the specific consumption of fuel from 357.05 g/kW/h to 372.24 g/kW/h was connected with repair of high pressure heaters (hereinafter –HPH), and, as a consequence, reduced efficiency of turbine units of stations #1,2. However,the installed capacity utilization index significantly improved from the planned 67.955% tothe actual 69.83%.Electricity generation at Zhambyl GRES in the Southern Zone of Kazakhstan in 2012increased by 171 million kW/h (14.2%) and amounted to 1,377.9 million kW/h. From April toOctober Zhambyl GRES suspended its activities in connection with the end of the autumnwinterperiod. There were from one to four units operating at the station. Specific energyconsumption for own needs decreased from 7.1% to 6.75% as compared to the previous yearand set targets due to increase of the average station load in 2012 to 286 MW, comparingto 241 MW in 2011. Specific fuel consumption in 2012 corresponded to the planned figureand was 386.3 g/kW/h.Electricity generation at JSC “AlES” in comparison to the year 2011 decreased by 138 millionkW/h, or 2.53% to 5,311.2 million kW/h. Generation decreased due to lower generation athydropower plants. Operating mode of the HPP was determined by the water managementbalance and hydrological conditions.Due to the reduce of water resources consumption compared with 2011 production atKapshagay HPP in 2012 decreased by 27% and was 1090.2 billion kW/h.Following the results of the analysis of performance indicators of JSC “Aktobe CHP”, theplant has reduced the production of electric energy from 677,214.439 thousand kW/h in2011 to 631,356.263 thousand kW/h in 2012, which is by 1% less than the production planin 2012 (637,728 thousand kW/h). Decrease in electricity generation as compared to thetarget is connected with disposal of facilities in connection with the replacement of turbineunit at station #3.In percentage, consumption of electricity for own needs in 2012 was 17.7%, higher than 16%in 2011, which is due to lower average load for the year as a whole.

CONTENTIndirect economic impactManagement and the Board of Directors of the Company aim at creating a sustainable company.The term “sustainable” refers to the efficient use of resources, both of Samruk-Energy Groupof Companies, and public.To this end, integrated management systems, technical re-equipment of plants are beingimplemented at a number of enterprises of the Group, and personnel and suppliers’ qualificationrequirements are increasing. At the same time, great attention is paid to economic aspectsas corporate social responsibility projects, environmental improvement and growth of thecompany are financed from the Group’s own operating profit.In accordance with the foregoing, management analyzes all other aspects of sustainabledevelopment in terms of their economic efficiency. For example, labor productivity (labororganization), raw materials used (impact on the environment), and other aspects are takeninto account when planning the activity of Samruk-Energy Group of Companies.The philosophy of sustainability and efficiency is present in such aspect as charity, which,apparently, is not to be considered from the position of economics. However, the quality andsize of the changes affected are taken into account when determining priority social projects.As a result, in 2012 the Company showed record-breaking profit (more details provided in thefinancial statements and the management report on the results of financial and economicactivities posted on the Company’s website).Financial and operating resultsIntegrated Report 2012 59

CONTENTDevelopment strategyThe strategic importance of the development of power sector lays in its important role in thesocio-economic development of each country. To achieve the set objectives and to implementcertain initiatives of the Government of the Republic of Kazakhstan the Company is engagedin modernization and further improvement of the energy complex of Kazakhstan.MissionFor maintaining high growth rates of the economy and improving the living standards ofKazakhstan, to ensure reliable and high quality heat, electricity and coal supply as part ofglobal energy and ecological initiatives through sustainable development.VisionCompetitive Eurasian electricity holding.Analysis of external environmentEconomic EnvironmentElectricity complex plays an important role in the socio-economic sphere of Kazakhstan andis identified as one of the priority sectors of the economy. Given further development of theelectricity industry a steady growth in demand for electricity sector products – electricity, heatand carbon is expectedin the next ten years. Under the most likely scenario the increase inelectricity consumption from 88.1 bln kW/h in 2011 to 121 bln kW/h by 2022 (an average annualgrowth of about 3%) is expected in the power sector of the country.This situation creates very favorable conditions for further growth of production volumes andprofitability of the Company.Social environmentThe State is conducting a balanced policy on corporate social responsibility. In 2011, theCompany entered into the UN Global Compact and approved the Strategy of CorporateSocial Responsibility, which aims to organize, improve and implement social programs.The Company intends to further develop the social sector through participation ingovernmental social responsibility and charity programs, as well as take care of the safetyof people in each region where it operates.Technological environmentThe level of technological development is one of the most important indicators for powerindustry. Given the importance of renewable energy projects and energy efficiencyprograms, further effectiveness of the Company will depend on the degree of success ofthe modernization of existing facilities and the introduction of energy efficient technologiesin the production process.Ecological environmentImproving environmental policy leads to a tightening of legislation, including the regulation ofemissions and liability for non-compliance. At present, the number of quotas under the KyotoProtocol for each power generating organization is defined by the National Plan, which theCompany is to meet both by reducing emissions of CO 2into the atmosphere, and by obtainingadditional quotas in exchange for the construction of renewable energy sources. Emissionsto the atmosphere of harmful substances such as nitrogen oxide, sulfur and particulatematter (ash) are limited to the maximum allowable, the excess of which is punishable byfines 1 .In addition, the Company shall take into account other possible consequences of the adoptionof amendments to the Environmental Code of the Republic of Kazakhstan in terms ofgovernment regulation of emissions and removals of greenhouse gases.Legal EnvironmentRegulatory framework of the Company is established by the Law of RK “On ElectricPower Industry”. The Act leaves uncertainty in the mechanism of setting maximum tariffsfor electricity and services to maintain the availability of electrical power after 2015. Inaddition, legislation in the area of transmission and distribution of electric power reservesthe definition of the list and size of reimbursable expenses in the discretion of the regionalregulatory authorities. These gaps in the legislation are the major source of the financialrisks of the Company.1 Resolution of the Government of the Republic of Kazakhstan #1232 dated 14.12.2007.Development strategy and its results Integrated Report 2012 61


CONTENTKazakhstan’s entry into the Common Economic Space and the planned accession tothe WTO will expand opportunities for mutually beneficial transactions for import andexport of electricity and coal, and will help increase the investment attractiveness ofthe assets. However, it could also lead to higher fares and prices of resources towardsalignment with the major trading partners of the CIS and the West.IndustryAs of December 31, 2012, the production of electric energy in Kazakhstan was carried by 70power plants. The total installed capacity of power plants in Kazakhstan is 20,442.0 MW andavailable capacity – 16,425.0 MW 2 .Kazakhstan has significant potential for renewable energy: solar, geothermal, wind andbiomass. In accordance with the Strategic Plan of the Republic of Kazakhstan until 2020, theshare of renewables in total energy consumption should be more than 3% by 2020.The decisive factor for the further development of renewable energy sources is the study ofthe law to specific mechanisms to support alternative energy sources. In addition, we needto develop an appropriate network infrastructure, solve issues of integrating large amountsof non-regulating capacity in the power system of Kazakhstan, as well as issues of land useunder the RES, including the use of protected areas.Electricity marketElectricity market consists of two levels: the wholesale and retail. Wholesale market playsthe most important role for the Company.The structure of the whole sale market includes the market for decentralized energypurchase, the market for centralized electricity trade, balancing market in real time modeand the market of system and auxiliary services.In 2016, the introduction of a capacity market, in which the individual tariffs will be set forthe service to maintain readiness of electrical power, will be envisaged.The competitive environment in the electricity marketKazakhstan’s power generation companies not included in the structure of the Company,are part of large financial-industrial groups and have regional significance, and thus do notcompete with the Company at the wholesale level.Investment programs of energy-producing organizations of industrial and regionalimportance are currently focused on maintaining existing facilities and meeting thegrowing demands of consumers connected, which leads to further strengthening the roleof the state. As a result, the Company’s role as a conduit for government policy in theenergy sector of Kazakhstan is expected to increase.ConsumersThe greatest amount of electricity consumed accounts by industry (54.8%) 3 . The rest of theshare is occupied by households, transport and process losses. The industrial structureis dominated by black and non-ferrous metallurgy, in the aggregate, consuming 44% of allelectricity attributable to industrial needs.Analysis of internal environmentProduction activityAs at 31 December 2012, the installed capacity of power plants that are part of the Company,was 9,665.2 MW, representing 47.3% of the total installed capacity of power plants of UPSof RK.Financial and economic activityAs of December 31, 2012, the amount of the consolidated assets of the Company amountedto 521.6 billion tenge. Of these, current assets amounted to 135.8 billion tenge and long-termassets – 385.8 billion tenge. Equity capital was 291.9 billion tenge.
