/PanARMENIAN.Net/ In the current stage Georgia does not need addition
import of energy power, including from Armenia, stated ESCO
representatives (Electric System Commerce Operator), commenting on the
information that the Georgian side has not confirmed its request for
obtaining power from Armenia made at the end of 2006.
ESCO reports currently Georgia totally imports 1.5 million
kilowatt-hour energy basically from Turkey and Azerbaijan to support
Ajaria's energy supply, at that with exchange conditions. Also 100-200
thousands kilowatt-hour is being imported from Azerbaijan in order to
support uninterrupted work of energy systems of both countries on
parallel regime. The rest of power necessary for internal need Georgia
produces itself.
As to Georgia's request to import energy from Armenia, the matter was
about importing not Armenian, as wrote Russian Media, but Iranian
power, which would enter Georgia through Armenian territory. At that
the payment would be done again on exchange bases. And the quantity of
importing energy would be less than the Russian Media wrote. But since
Georgia does not feel deficit in power, this scheme, in any cases, was
not enabled, ESCO mentioned, IA Regnum reports.
