    It Won't Be Dark in Javakhk This Winter

    Armenian-Russian joined Hayrusgazard Company and Georgian United
    Switch Energy Company signed an agreement these days according to
    which Armenia will resume supplying Georgia with energy, Ministry of
    Energetics of Armenia informed Azg Daily. According to the agreement,
    Armenia will provide energy for Georgian Samtskhe-Javakhk and Kvemo
    Qartli regions through Ashotsq-Ninotsminda and Lalvar medium-voltage
    lines.

    The Georgian United Switch Energy Company, which is run by American PA
    Consulting Company, informed yesterday that energy supply from Armenia
    willcontinue till April 1 of 2005. Georgia is going to pay 13 AMD per
    kilowatt-hour. Around 60 megawatt of energy will be exported to
    Georgia daily.

    The price for consumers is uncertain so far. Georgy Ioseliani, head of
    the Samtskhe-Javakhk line of the United Switch Energy, stated later on
    that the population will pay 22 AMD per kilowatt-hour. The population
    of Akhalkalak and Ninotsminda used to pay 30 AMD last winter.

    Novosti news agency that Telasi Company (belonging to Russian RAO EES)
    is also tending to import energy of 100 megawatts per hour from
    Armenia. Georgia's debt from previous energy supplies amounts to $4
    million.
