The Atomic Industry Development Association (AIDA) is a nuclear industry development platform that combines industry best practices with international best practices to support and protect the interests of participants in Kazakhstan’s nuclear and energy industries.

About us

Atomic Industry Development Association (AIDA) was established in April 2024 as a non-profit incorporated organization (NPIO), registered in the International Financial Center “Astana”.

Taking into consideration the cornerstone importance of the advancement of civil nuclear industry, as well as the positive outcome of the national Referendum on the construction of the first Nuclear Power Plant, for stable economic growth and energy security of the Republic of Kazakhstan, the establishment of AIDA was driven by the lack of a unified platform for the prompt coordination of the nuclear and energy industries of Kazakhstan and for advocacy of joint position and development vision.

VISION

To create a platform combining the advanced industry expertise with best international practices for protection of the interests of Kazakhstan’s nuclear industry entities in light of the global “revival” of the nuclear energy sector and its pivotal role for Kazakhstan’s energy security and sustainable development.

MISSION

Uniting the industry and national regulators for the cohesion in the development of sustainable and coordinated nuclear technology, science and industry sectors
