GYUMRI, FEBRUARY 13, ARMENPRESS. The activities in the frames of
"Reconstruction of Gyumri 2 Substation" project will be over in
February 2014. As the head of the project Norik Khachatryan mentioned
in a conversation with "Armenpress" the project is realized in two
stages. The activities of the first stage will be over this year
in April.
"The activities of the second stage will start immediately after
the end of the first stage of the project," he said adding that
the substation will be exploited in April 2014. The head of the
project mentioned that the substation needed full reconstruction
and this project is of high significance in this respect. "Gyumri
is an earthquake zone and the equipments of the substation were
already dated and required renovation," he said. The equipment has
been imported from France, Germany, Italy, and Ukraine. The main
aim of the project is to eliminate the basic vulnerable points of
the transmission system, as well as to ensure reliable electricity
supply within the system. "Everything will be done for increasing
the efficiency rate of the transmission system and for mitigating
the risks on the ambient environment," said the official.
Among other things Norik Khachatryan assured that after putting
the station into operation there will be no more interceptions in
Gyumri and in the Shirak region in general. "We are going to have
a high-quality substation of 220/110/10 kv power which will provide
electricity to the whole region," he said.
