ARMRUSGASPROM RESUMES SUPPLYING ELECTRICITY TO GEORGIA

YEREVAN, JUNE 17, NOYAN TAPAN. ArmRusgasprom resumed supplying
electricity to Georgia from June 17. Noyan Tapan’s correspondent
was informed about this by the company’s Press Service. To recap,
the electricity supply was stopped on May 15, due to increase in
the tariff by the company. According to the same source, the term of
the current agreement on electricity supply signed with the United
Georgian Distribution Energy Company will expire in late June. The
electricity will be supplied by a reconsidered tariff. To recap,
Karen Karapetian, ArmRusgasprom board’s Chairman-Executive Director,
declared the other day that supply will be carried out by a new tariff
increased by 1.18 cents, by a tariff of 2.68 cents for 1 KWt/h. To
recap, from December 2002 up to April 2003 ArmRusgasprom exported
nearly 178 mln kWt/h electricity amounting to 4.45 mln dollars and
from October 2004 up to May 15 2005 141 mln kWt/h electricity amounting
to 3.6 mln dollars to Georgia.
