Green Corridor Alliance and German energy technology company Siemens Energy have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) to explore cooperation on electricity transmission systems under the Trans-Caspian Green Energy Corridor project.
Green Corridor Alliance CEO Tural Aliyev announced the agreement, according to Report.
The memorandum establishes a framework for cooperation between the two sides, including potential consulting arrangements related to the development of the large-scale energy project.
The agreement was signed in Berlin on the sidelines of the Kazakhstan-Germany Business Forum, held as part of Kazakh President Kassym-Jomart Tokayev’s official visit to Germany.
The MoU provides a basis for studying possible partnership models in the development of electricity transmission infrastructure for the Trans-Caspian initiative.
The agreement follows an earlier step toward cooperation. The two sides signed a non-disclosure agreement (NDA) during Baku Energy Week in June 2026.
The planned corridor is designed to connect the renewable energy potential of Central Asia with Azerbaijan and European markets.
Azerbaijan, Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan are developing the Central Asia-Azerbaijan energy corridor, with Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan possessing significant solar energy potential.
The initiative could eventually be integrated with the Caspian-Black Sea Green Energy Corridor, creating an interconnected route between Central Asia and Europe via the Caspian and Black seas.
On April 4, 2025, Azerbaijan, Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan agreed, with the support of the Asian Development Bank (ADB) and the Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank (AIIB), to launch the first phase of the Caspian Green Energy Corridor initiative.
The countries signed an agreement to cooperate on a feasibility study for a project that would integrate their electricity systems and establish a route for transporting renewable energy to European markets.
The latest agreement with Siemens Energy adds another international technology partner to efforts aimed at developing the transmission infrastructure needed to connect Central Asia’s renewable energy resources with Azerbaijan and, potentially, Europe.
