Hrazdan HPP 5th power unit will be put into service in June 2010. It
is a unique station, as a new unit 480 MW is being built adjacent to
the old unfinished 300 MW power unit. We plan to exploit both power
generating units. Indeed, it is a novelty," ArmRosGazprom Company
Board Chairman Karen Karapetyan stated at the Oct. 20 interview with
the journalists.

According to him, this was never done before. There are many similar
power generating units of 300 MW around the globe, that need to be
updated. Shortly after the launching of the Hrazdan HPP fifth power
generating unit, ArmRosGazprom can initiate the exchange of experience.

The preparation steps of the reconstruction and updating program of the
Hrazdan HPP 5th power unit was completed in 2008. New effective and
competitive heat and power engineering capacities of 480 MW will be
available on the energy map of Armenia next year. ArmRosGazprom will
have an opportunity to be involved in the Armenian energy delivery
sector, Karapetyan said.
