    YEREVAN, DECEMBER 4, ARMENPRESS: Armenian Energy and Natural Resources
    Minister Armen Movsisyan, accompanied by the general director of
    "ArmRusGasProm" company Karen Karapetyan visited town of Hrazdan to
    get acquainted with the process of upgrading of the fifth unit of
    Hrazdan Thermo Power Plant.

    In a briefing with reporters the minister reminded that the
    construction-mounting works of the fifth energy unit started from
    2008. According to him, during this period an extended work has
    been carried out. Currently about the 90% of necessary devices have
    already been imported to Armenia, and the 70% of the works have been
    implemented. In September of the coming year the construction-mounting
    will already be finished and regulatory works will be implemented.

    "At the end of the next year the 450 megawatt power block will
    be connected to the network. Our thermo powers are morally and
    physically old. The four energy units of Hrazdan for years were the
    main thermo suppliers but now they do not correspond to the present
    demands. As a result of construction of new unit for production of
    1 KW/H electricity about 270 grams of conditional fuel will be spent
    against the today's 360-370. In future we may develop what we have,
    adding another gas-turbine block. It will give an opportunity to solve
    in Armenia's energy system both inner issues and have a peculiar role
    in the region in production of electricity, its transit and supply,"
    the minister said.

    The regulatory works of the "Hrazdan-5" energy unit are expected to
    be finished in 2010. During 2006-2009 about 393,5 million USD have
    been invested for finishing construction and upgrading the 5th unit
    of Hrazdan Thermo Power Plant.
