Abstrakt: |
Energy is a particularly strategic resource because it provides basic human services such as heat and light, and also because it enables all manner of other economically vital commercial and industrial activities. The ability of a country to safeguard its energy security depends on many factors and mainly energy resources. Armenia has no own fossil fuel resources and is completely dependant on supplies from outside. This fact makes the development of alternative energy resources vitally important for the country. At the same time Armenia has considerable renewable energy resources as hydro, solar, wind and geothermal. The potential of hydro energy capacity in Armenia is around 1,000 MW and formed 20-35% of total installed capacity. Part A of presented paper examined the current status of the Armenian energy system, the situation, importance and strategies for development of renewable, particularly hydro energy and the limitations of opportunities connected with environmental and other aspects.
