    Interenergo to control Armenian electricity distribution grid

    By Tigran Liloyan

    YEREVAN

    The Armenian government has decided to transfer the entire stock of
    the republican electricity distribution grid to Interenergo - a
    component of the Unified Energy System of Russia, Armenian Energy
    Minister Armen Movsesian told a Friday press conference in Yerevan.

    He said the Unified Energy System of Russia would assume all the
    commitments of the current owner of the republican electricity
    distribution grid, the British-based Midland Resources. The British
    company suggested the stock transfer two weeks ago.

    The minister denied claims that the Unified Energy System of Russia
    would allegedly become the monopoly on the Armenian energy market. He
    said the Russian company produces only 10% of the republican
    electricity.

    On June 23 Interenergo acquired the right to 99-year control over the
    Armenian electricity network with $73 million.
