Development of the Renewable Energies
(Financed by KfW)
The overall objective of the Program for the Promotion of Renewable Energies is to contribute to an improved energy supply and to the further development of the private sector in Armenia by the cost-effective utilization of renewable energy sources for electricity production. The Program envisages promoting the utilization of renewable energy, in particular Small Hydro Power Plants (SHPP), by enhancing the access to loans for private entrepreneurs and private enterprises.
