Armenian-Russian joint company ArmrosGazprom plans to relaunch the
5th block of the Razdan electric power station, which runs on Russian
natural gas which enters Armenia via Georgia. Director General of
the company Karen Karapetian has stated that the 300 megawatt energy
block has been completely reconstructed and modernised, enabling
Armenia to produce cheap electrical energy and export it.
At present ArmrosGazprom does not export any electricity but some time
ago it exported it to Georgia. The Razdan block is the most powerful
in Armenia and its reconstruction cost USD 393.5 million.
