During his visit to the Islamic Republic of Iran, RA Minister of Territorial Administration and Infrastructure Gnel Sanosyan met with Iran's Energy Minister Ali Akbar Mehrabyan.
Several issues of bilateral cooperation in the energy field were discussed during the meeting.
In particular, regarding defining new ways of cooperation, increasing the volume of electricity exports, and completing the construction of the third line of Iran-Armenia power transmission as quickly as possible, which will make it likely to increase the volume of gas imported to Armenia under the Gas-for-Electricity program and the importance of electricity exported from Armenia.
The perspectives of jointly developing the existing potential in the field of renewable energy were also discussed.
Minister Sanosyan presented to Ali Akbar Mehrabyan the large-scale works being carried out in the energy sector in Armenia and the plans to re-equip the NPP and build a new nuclear power plant.
