"If you look at the ambitious role of Kazakhstan in renewable energy, infrastructure and agri-food - he said speaking to AGI at the side of the event - there are a lot of opportunities to increase cooperation between Italy and Kazakhstan. We have been working together a lot in the oil and gas sector. Today 39% of Italian energy is produced from renewable energy and our experience could be very interesting to Kazakhstan considering that the country wants to switch to green energy", Scalfarotto said.
