Azerbaijan has completed the design of a power transmission line that is meant to reach the border with Armenia and connect Nakhchivan to the country’s main electricity grid. According to Sputnik Armenia’s Telegram channel, the announcement was made by Balaba Rzayev, head of Azerenergy OJSC.
Earlier reports said the line would run along the Araks River, with some sections crossing mountainous and rocky terrain. The stretch from Armenia toward Nakhchivan is planned to be 44 km long.
Baku is presenting the initiative as part of a broader international energy corridor. According to the report, the project is intended to link Azerbaijan, Turkey and Europe by connecting Nakhchivan to Azerbaijan’s main power system.
