Currently , the government of the Republic of Kazakhstan has made an important decision regarding constructing a nuclear power station in the country . In matters of nuclear policy implementation , the state often faces strong scepticism or distrust from the public . Therefore , it is necessary for the authorities to clarify to citizens the goals and importance of the initiative to build the plant and to understand public concerns and the acceptability of nuclear energy . This study examines public awareness and the transparency of government agencies in implementing state policy regarding constructing a nuclear power plant in the Republic of Kazakhstan. The aim of this research is to analyze the public recognition and readiness of the population to support the state’s energy policy , to analyze the population’s trust in government agencies implementing this policy , and the acceptability of building a nuclear power plant in the Republic of Kazakhstan. The study uses both quantitative and qualitative analysis methods , as well as surveys and SWOT analysis . In addition , the work presents informational materials from state institutions , news articles , and an analysis of international experience in the field of nuclear energy . The survey results showed that at the moment , the state needs to take measures to obtain broad public support for the development of nuclear energy , as the population has very different views on the benefits of operating a nuclear power plant . Additionally , the research identified gaps in informing the population about the country’s energy policy and low public trust in the authorities . Furthermore , a SWOT analysis revealed « weak » points and existing problems in implementing the energy policy .
