  • Armenian Power Utility Boosts Revenue 27% In 2005

    ARMENIAN POWER UTILITY BOOSTS REVENUE 27% IN 2005

    Electrical Network of Armenia (ENA)

    boosted revenue tentatively 27% in 2005 to $165 million, Vladislav
    Andreyev, the company's financial director, told Interfax.

    Andreyev said the figure reflected a stronger dram against the
    dollar. He said revenue in the local currency only grew 9%.

    ENA also had higher electricity consumption in a growing economy to
    thank for the jump in revenue, he said.

    Yevgeny Gladunchuk, ENA's general director, told Interfax that
    electricity sales rose 12% to 4.381 billion kilowatt-hours. He said
    sales in Armenia itself rose 8% to 4.168 billion kWh. Households
    consumed 45% of the electricity.

    Andreyev, for his part, said the cost of buying electricity from
    power stations soared 46% last year, and revenue from the sale of
    this electricity grew just 26%, reflecting the company's reduced
    tariff margin compared with 2004.

    ENA is Armenia's electricity sales monopoly and is the country's
    biggest enterprise by revenue.
