TBILISI, JULY 1, ARMENPRESS: Georgia’s fuel and energy minister Nika
Gilauri announced on June 30 about a soonest start of construction of a new
power line from Armenia, which he said would kick off in a month. He said
the new power line with a capacity of 330 Kwatt/h will become an alternative
electricity supply source eliminating Georgia’s full independence on
Kavkasioni power line.
The construction of a new power line- Gardabani-Hrazdan, will be mainly
funded by Georgia’s government, which is set to release some $12 million for
this. The exact date of the start of construction will be specified during a
Gilauri’s visit to Yerevan next week.
