Energy output totaled 5.68bn kwh in Armenia this year - a 7% decrease
as compared with last year.
At his news conference RA Minister of Energy Armen Movsisyan said that
the economic crisis caused many enterprises to stop their operation,
which accounts for the decrease in energy output.
Movsisyan is satisfied with the output of water power - 2bn kwh. The
energy output of small hydropower plants reached 335m kwh this year
against 229kwh last year. "The construction of small hydropower plants
produces prompt results, and the program has proved its worth. The
energy production potential of Armenian hydropower plants is 5m kwh,
while the current energy output is 350m kwh. The rest 150m kwh will be
produced after 150 new small hydropower plants have been constructed,"
the Minister said.
He also reported a decrease in the energy output of thermal power
plants percentage wise. This year's output was a little more than
1bn kwh against 1.8bn kwh last year.
