electric power over the first half-year 2009, which is by 3,2% less
of the planned level, Director General of the plant Gagik Markosyan
told ArmInfo correspondent.
He also added this is conditioned by the production management
control. The total of 1322,66 mln kWt/h electric power were delivered
over the reported period against the planned 1369.7 mln kWt/h.
To note, the Armenian NPP was transferred to the financial control
of "Inter RAO UES" CJSC, being a subsidiary of RAO "UES of Russia",
in September, 2003. Two power units of Russian sample WWER-440 with
total capacity of 815 MW have been installed at ANPP. The first unit
was commissioned in 1976, the second one – in 1980. In the beginning,
1989, the plant was removed from service for political reasons, and
in the beginning, 1995, the NPP’s second unit with capacity of 404
MW was restarted.
