    According to Rezonansi, the curtailment of imports of electricity
    from Armenia has not created problems for Tbilisi's energy supply.
    The paper writes that as was said in Telasi, electricity is being
    distributed in all Tbilisi districts.

    Rezonansi reports that the energy produced by hydroelectric stations
    will compensate for halt in the import of energy. As for the
    restoration of imports from Armenia, the paper reports that Telasi
    does not say whether these imports will be continued or not.

    Resonansi notes that Armenia stopped importing electricity to Telasi
    on May1. According to the paper, the reason for this is the decrease
    of the exchange rate of the dollar in comparison with the national
    Armenian currency, the dram, which caused, according to the Armenian
    company, energy export to be unprofitable. The paper adds that Georgia
    receives 150 megawatts of energy from Armenia during peak-hours.
