PSRC approves Armenian NPP investment program for 2026

ArmInfo.  At its meeting on May 13, the Public Services Regulatory Commission (PSRC) of the Republic of Armenia approved the investment program of Armenian Nuclear Power  Plant CJSC for 2026.

According to the PSRC, 3.4 billion drams (excluding VAT) will be  allocated for the program's implementation. The investment program is  aimed at technical re-equipment and modernization of the plant, as  well as investments in other areas necessary for the NPP's operation.

As a reminder, the Armenian Nuclear Power Plant is currently  undergoing a five-month outage due to scheduled maintenance and  refueling. The 3.4 billion drams will be used to address these  specific issues.  However, a significant amount of work is planned in  parallel, aimed at a program to extend the second power unit's  service life until 2036. A state loan of 63.2 billion drams has been  provided from the country's state budget for this purpose.
