YEREVAN, June 6. /ARKA/. The European Union will stimulate development of competitive, stable and safe energy in Armenia, Tamara Babayan, the head of the EU program contributing to development of stable energy in Armenia, said Wednesday at an event held as part of the EU Sustainable Energy Week.



“In recent years, the European Union was supporting the Armenian government in implementation of a number of reforms and programs in the energy sector,” she said. “Some of them were aimed at assisting communities in Armenia in development of renewed energy and energy efficiency systems.”



The Head of the European Union Delegation to Armenia, Ambassador Piotr Switalski, has repeatedly said earlier that the European Union supports Armenia’s efforts to make its energy independent.



Cooperation between the European Union and Armenia is aimed at diversifying energy sources in the country and at lessening the country’s energy dependence on energy import. -0---
