The paper is devoted to the study of the bioenergy potential of agricultural waste in the Akmola Region. The Republic of Kazakhstan exports significant volumes of agricultural products abroad, provides its own food security and actively develops the agricultural sector. Despite a significant amount of waste, its processing is at the initial stage of development. The secondary use of agricultural waste results in a number of positive environmental and economic effects. To design biogas plants, to assess their potential productivity and profitability, it is necessary to pre-select territories and assess the available ones for processing waste. For these purposes, a comprehensive analysis of large agricultural enterprises of the Akmola Region was carried out, and the available gross energy potential of the waste was calculated. The use of spatial analysis made it possible to consider in the complex a number of significant factors limiting and promoting the development of bioenergy and to determine the territories that are optimal for waste processing with biogas production.
