YEREVAN, May 2. /ARKA/. The second annual exhibition of heat supply
systems and technologies launched in Yerevan. Director of the Armenian
Renewable Energy Foundation Tamara Babayan said that within its
frames not only various expositions but also pavilion discussions
will be held. She said that the exhibition is conducted in the frames
of a joint program between the Foundation and the WB in providing
heat supply.
"The objective of the program is to stimulate implementation and
usage of energy-saving technology in the populated areas of Armenia,
in particular, multi-apartment buildings. It is rather important for
the program to research the negative influence of low-quality heat
supply systems used in the republic," she said.
Babayan said that sometimes the usage of low-quality technology is
not a lack of financial means but lack of information on where to
obtain them. That is why the exhibition aims to inform public about new
technologies and systems, financial organizations that provide credits
for obtaining them, Government’s efforts to develop this sphere.
The second annual exhibition of heat supply systems and technologies
which will last will May 4 is organized by the Armenian Renewable
Energy Foundation and the World Bank. 40 companies and organizations
participate in it, in particular, the network of the following shops:
