In the context of the global energy transition, digitalization of the energy sector in Kazakhstan is of strategic importance to ensure the reliability, sustainability and competitiveness of the national energy system. The article examines the prospects and challenges of digitalization of the energy sector in Kazakhstan, focusing on the implementation of smart grids, electric charging station infrastructure and smart home technologies. The study identifies existing gaps in their integration due to technological, regulatory and investment constraints, and identifies areas for the development of digital business models that can improve the efficiency of the industry and offer new sources of income. Particular attention is paid to recommendations for overcoming these barriers, including the development of comprehensive strategies, attracting government subsidies and developing partnerships with the private sector. The article also suggests adapting international experience, such as the German Energiewende model and Chinese practices in the field of electromobility, to accelerate the digital transformation in Kazakhstan. The results of the study emphasize the need for coordinated actions between the state, business and consumers to create a sustainable and competitive energy system.
