    ARMENIA MIGHT GET EUR40 MLN GERMAN LOAN FOR ALTERNATIVE ENERGY

    Germany might give Armenia a soft loan of EUR40 million for the
    development of alternative energy, German Ambassador Hans-Jochen
    Schmidt told reporters on Friday.

    Germany could offer Armenia a loan on preferential terms in the amount
    of EUR40 million that would be used for the development of alternative
    energy, he said.

    Schmidt also said that German international cooperation agency GIZ
    has developed a program to protect Armenia's forests. There are
    plans to lend Armenia EUR6 million through bank KfW for protection
    of nature reserves.

    Germany is active in providing financing for Armenia's energy sector,
    particularly hydropower. Loans were extended for the construction
    and repair of small hydropower plants, and a EUR51 million loan was
    granted for the modernization of the Vorotan hydropower cascade.
