STUDYING THE APPROACHES OF EUROPEAN COUNTRIES IN FORESIGHT STUDIES OF THE DEVELOPMENT OF SCIENCE AND GREEN TECHNOLOGIES FOR ADOPTING THEIR EXPERIENCE IN THE CONTEXT OF KAZAKHSTAN

This paper reviews the application of foresight methods in the field of science, especially in the development of green technologies in various European countries, with the aim of identifying the most suitable approaches for future use in Kazakhstan. The analysis shows that green technology forecasting promises to be an effective tool for managing sustainable development. Methods for forecasting green technologies are focused on a systematic approach and integrated solutions, taking into account the environment and social aspects. It is also important to consider both global and local environmental issues to gain a full understanding of future development trends. The article provides a comparison of the Dutch and Danish approaches. Green technology foresight research can play an important role at the national level, especially in integrating sustainability considerations into technology development and innovation processes. They also contribute to the development of more effective and sustainable development strategies for companies and government in Kazakhstan. These studies contribute to increasing environmental awareness and awareness in society regarding the importance of sustainable development. Technology forecasting values the use of Delphi surveys to provide a better understanding of possible future trends. The knowledge gained is the basis for developing strategic plans in the field of green technologies and ensuring sustainable development of the energy sector.
