Electric vehicles are more than just a trend.

They’re about economy, innovation, and conscious choice.

But in Kazakhstan, EVs are still far from mainstream.

Why?

Here’s what we see on the ground:

🔌 Stations exist — but not where people need them

The issue isn’t the number of chargers, it’s accessibility.

Yes, Almaty has many stations — but they’re concentrated in just a few locations, often in inconvenient or overloaded areas.

To build a true EV culture, charging should be within 5 minutes walking distance from key destinations: home, work, shopping centers. Today, that’s still rare.

⚖️ Fragmented support, focused on individuals

There are incentives — waived recycling fees, tax benefits — but mostly for private imports.

What remains unaddressed:

— Vehicles with no warranty or certified service

— No financing options or trade-in programs

— Official imports are limited and heavily marked up

The result? A market that’s stagnating — for both drivers and businesses.

💭 Skepticism and the “waiting game”

One of the biggest barriers is perception.

Many still think EVs are too expensive, complicated, or just “not for us.”

But real-world experience shows otherwise: when charging is close, EVs are easier to live with than gasoline cars.

🔋 What is Voltau doing about it?

We’re building infrastructure where it’s truly needed:

✅ Installing charging stations in Almaty and Shymkent, near homes, offices, and commercial centers

✅ Launching a free installation program for residential neighborhoods

✅ Expanding our Charge Boost business plan — for companies focused on efficiency and ESG

✅ Ensuring ease of use with transparent pricing, a reliable app, and strong support

Transformation doesn’t happen overnight.

But someone has to take the first step.

Voltau — the energy of change.
