The RA Parliament has adopted in the third reading the bill "On
construction of a new power unit in Armenia." RA Minister of Energy
and Natural Resources Armen Movsisyan, who presented the bill,
pointed out that the document provides for the construction of a new
power unit/units with a total capacity of 1.2MW and operating life
of 60 years.

The Minister said that the construction project is estimated at U.S.

$4.5-5bn. Movsisyan pointed out high importance of the new power units
for Armenia, as the neighboring states have energy deficit. Armenia
is the only country in the region that is capable of generating energy
not only for domestic needs, but also export.

During his recent visit to Yerevan President of the Rostom Corporation
Sergey Kiriyenko stated that Rosatom is ready to render its services
to Armenia, using the most reliable technologies.
