Tehran, Sept 28, IRNA Iran-Armenia-Energy 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 IRNA.
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.
