Two companies – Italian and American – to embark on wind electric
plants construction in Armenia in 2008
YEREVAN, October 19. /ARKA/. Two companies – Italian and American –
are to embark on wind electric plants construction in Armenia in
2008, Armenian Deputy Energy Minister Areg Galstyan said Thursday in
Yerevan, at the international conference on geothermal energy.
`90-megawatt plants are planned to be built in Karachakh and
25-megawatt plants in Sotka’, he said.
He also said that new territories would be searched for constructing
wind plants.
The first wind power plant was put into exploitation in December 2005
in province of Lori. Iran has provided $3.5 million as grant for
building that plant. The plant consists of four 2.6-megawatt wind
turbines.
The plant generates 5 million kilowatt/hour power every year.
Armenia’s minimal economically-justified wind energy capacity is 450
megawatt, which makes it possible to generate 1 billion kilowatt/hour
electric power.
The conference is organized by Armenian Energy Ministry and France
Embassy in Armenia. M.V.-0—
