    VOLUME OF RENEWABLE ELECTRICAL POWER MORE THAN DOUBLES LAST YEAR TO 300 MILLION KWH

    ARKA
    Feb 24, 2010

    YEREVAN, February 24, /ARKA/. The volume of renewable electrical power
    produced in Armenia more than doubled last year to 300 million KWh,
    a deputy energy and natural resources minister Areg Galstian told
    the parliament today.

    He said the government-designed plan to boost renewable energy
    is supported by Armenia's international partners, particularly,
    by German KfW bank that provides financing for such projects.

    Last year Armenia's nuclear power plant produced almost 2.5 billion
    KWh of power, by 1.3% more than in 2008. The volume of electrical
    power produced by thermal power plants dropped last year by 38.4%
    if compared to the preceding year, to 1.1 billion KWh.

    Hydropower plants produced a little over 2 billion KWH power, by 12.4%
    more than in 2008. Armenia's sole windmill produced 4.3 million KWh
    power, by 2.3 times more than in 2008.
