A decade of precise wind & solar measurement

Independent resource assessment and engineering across Central Asia and beyond — operating to international standards from offices in Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan.

Our story

Measuring wind since 2013

Zhel Ustaushylar was founded in Kazakhstan in 2013 with a single focus: providing accurate, independent wind measurements to the growing renewable-energy market in Central Asia. Over more than a decade we have grown from a local measurement company into the region's leading provider of wind and solar resource assessment.

In 2024 we expanded into Uzbekistan, establishing Veshparkar LLC in Tashkent to serve the rapidly developing sector there. Today the two entities operate under one brand, one quality standard, and one management team.

We have installed over 100 met masts and LiDARs — reaching heights of up to 140 m — and conducted energy-yield assessments for wind farms totalling more than 1500 MW of capacity. Our clients include major international energy developers, oil & gas companies, mining operators and engineering firms.

How we work

Our principles

Three principles guide how we work on every project, for every client.

Independence

We have no financial relationship with any turbine manufacturer, panel supplier or project developer. Our measurements and assessments are produced solely in the interest of accuracy and completeness.

Precision

Every campaign follows IEC and MEASNET protocols. We use calibrated equipment, maintain rigorous data quality control and deliver results that international financiers can rely on.

Local expertise

Our permanent field teams in Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan understand local permitting, logistics, customs and terrain. We mobilise fast and operate reliably in remote, extreme conditions.

Where we operate

Our geography

We operate across Central Asia and beyond, with permanent offices and field teams in Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan.
