Armenia should develop alternative energy sources
Tuesday,
May 21
Russia is not putting pressure on Armenia by raising the price of
natural gas supplied to Armenia, political scientist Levon Shirinian
told Aysor.am.
`We should not give way to anti-Russian hysteria. Russia raises prices
of energy carriers for other countries as well. Energy carriers are
expensive worldwide and nobody is obliged to sell their natural
resources at low prices,' L. Shirinian said.
He expressed an opinion that Armenia should consider using alternative
energy sources. `For example, there are 2,500 hours of sunny days in
Armenia a year and it is necessary to use new technology to develop
this sphere. Strangely enough, the issue has not yet been discussed at
the state level,' the political scientist noted.
According to him, the development of alternative energy and
energy-saving technologies may mitigate the hike in gas price.
