  • Iranian Energy Minister Expected In Armenia

    IRANIAN ENERGY MINISTER EXPECTED IN ARMENIA

    Persian Journal, Iran
    Sept 30 2006

    Energy Minister Parviz Fattah is to begin a visit to Armenia today to
    participate in the Iran-Armenia-Georgia trilateral meeting as well as
    follow up joint border projects and a bilateral agreement for supply
    of electricity to Armenia.

    On the two countries' energy cooperation, he said a third 230-kilovolt
    transmission line being set up by the Iranian Sanir company in
    Armenia is one of their ongoing projects and is to become operational
    by year-end.

    Electricity networks of Iran, Armenia and Georgia will be linked in
    the near future so that Iran can have greater access to international
    networks through Geogria, the minister told.

    Construction of a dam on their joint Aras river is another Iran-Armenia
    ongoing joint project, he said, adding that talks are underway for
    construction of another dam in Armenia.

    The 235-km Aras river forms an international border between Iran,
    Azerbaijan Republic and Armenia.
