Armenia has significant solar energy potential: average annual solar energy flow per square metre of horizontal surface is 1 720 kWh (the European average is 1 000 kWh), and one-quarter of the country's territory is endowed with solar energy resources of 1 850 kWh/m 2 per year. Solar thermal energy is therefore developing rapidly in Armenia.
In 2017, Tamara Babayan, a sustainable energy expert, estimated the potential of Armenia's distributed solar power at 1,280 MW and almost 1,800 GWh in annual generation.
Last year Armenia produced 8,907.9 GWh of electricity, up 16% from 2021. The vast majority came from thermal power plants in Yerevan and Hrazdan (43.5%) and the Metsamor Nuclear Power Plant (32%). Hydropower accounted for 21.8%, while solar stood at 2.7% and wind power at just 0.02%.
Renewable energy resources, including hydro, represented 7.1% of Armenia's energy mix in 2020. Almost one-third of the country's electricity generation (30% in 2021) came from renewable sources. Forming the foundation of Armenia's renewable energy system as of 6 January 2022 were 189 small, private HPPs (under 30 MW), mostly constructed since 2007.
Masrik Solar will help assure the reliability of Armenia's electricity supply by increasing the country's peak-load capacity at affordable tariffs, while also contributing to lowering the greenhouse gas emissions from the power system.
It is Armenia's first large utility-scale and competitively-tendered solar independent power producer. The project will operate under a 20-year power purchase agreement and is expected to have a total cost of $55 million.
