In recent times, there has been a remarkable exponential interest in green energy projects, driven by their potential to significantly decrease greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and reduce reliance on fossil fuels. However, such high-tech projects' complexity, expensiveness, and high uncertainty level necessitate new ways of increasing efficiency. Therefore, this study, with its clear aim to evaluate the efficiency of green energy projects and identify the critical success factors that can enhance efficiency, remains a compelling and relevant research endeavour. The study employed a rigorous methodology, using multilinear regression analysis to survey 123 project managers from Kazakhstan. This allowed for a comprehensive comparison of the efficiency level of green energy projects and low-tech projects. Research results show that green energy projects exhibit the highest percentage of schedule overrun at 23.9% and cost overrun at 32.7%, indicating substantial delays in project completion and extra expenses in budget compared with low-tech projects. Moreover, green energy projects show the least favourable results (7.3) regarding technological performance. The study reveals the following critical success processes enhancing project efficiency: project planning, scope and cost management, communication, and team management. Based on the processes of the Project Management Body of Knowledge (PMBoK) Guide, an algorithm for managing green energy projects was developed. This tool equips project managers with a process-based map, enabling them to run their projects effectively and enhance their efficiency.

W ostatnim czasie nastąpił gwałtowny wzrost zainteresowania projektami związanymi z zieloną energią, napędzany ich potencjałem do znacznego zmniejszenia emisji gazów cieplarnianych (GHG) i zmniejszenia zależności od paliw kopalnych. Jednak złożoność, kosztowność i wysoki poziom niepewności takich zaawansowanych technologicznie projektów wymagają nowych sposobów zwiększania efektywności. Dlatego też niniejsze badanie, którego wyraźnym celem jest ocena efektywności projektów związanych z zieloną energią i identyfikacja krytycznych czynników sukcesu, które mogą zwiększyć efektywność, pozostaje ważnym i istotnym przedsięwzięciem badawczym. W badaniu zastosowano rygorystyczną metodologię, wykorzystując analizę regresji wieloliniowej do ankietowania 123 kierowników projektów z Kazachstanu. Pozwoliło to na kompleksowe porównanie poziomu efektywności projektów związanych z zieloną energią i projektów o niskim poziomie zaawansowania technologicznego. Wyniki badań pokazują, że projekty związane z zieloną energią wykazują najwyższy odsetek przekroczeń harmonogramu na poziomie 23,9% i kosztów na poziomie 32,7%, co wskazuje na znaczne opóźnienia w realizacji projektu i dodatkowe wydatki w budżecie w porównaniu z projektami o niskim poziomie zaawansowania technologicznego. Co więcej, projekty związane z zieloną energią wykazują najmniej korzystne wyniki (7,3) w zakresie wydajności technologicznej. Badanie ujawnia następujące krytyczne procesy sukcesu zwiększające efektywność projektu: planowanie projektu, zarządzanie zakresem i kosztami, komunikacja i zarządzanie zespołem. W oparciu o procesy zawarte w przewodniku Project Management Body of Knowledge (PMBoK) opracowano algorytm zarządzania projektami związanymi z zieloną energią. Narzędzie to wyposaża kierowników projektów w mapę opartą na procesach, umożliwiając im efektywne prowadzenie projektów i zwiększanie ich wydajności
