Ekibastuz, Industrial city in Pavlodar Region, Kazakhstan

Located at 347 meters above sea level, Ekibastuz extends across northeastern Kazakhstan with substantial coal deposits and power generation facilities.

The settlement emerged in 1898 following the discovery of coal deposits by Kosym Pshembayev, leading to the establishment of mining operations in the region.

The city population includes Kazakh, Russian, Ukrainian, Tatar, and German communities, each contributing to the local traditions and social fabric.

Two major coal-fired power stations, GRES-1 and GRES-2, supply electricity through extensive infrastructure networks across the Pavlodar Region.

The Vostochny Coal Mine near Ekibastuz contains over 13 billion tons of coal spread across 62 square kilometers of open-cast mining territory.
