Gov't to Launch Analysis for Solar Power Plant Construction

The Georgian Government is set to launch a technical and economic study for the construction of solar power plants, Georgia’s Prime Minister Giorgi Kvirikashvili announced during a government meeting earlier this week.

Eight locations will be analyzed in the coming 18 months for suitability to construct the plants, a decision which, according to the PM, will be a step forward towards the enego-independence of the country.

Further, the launch of the first wind power plant in Kareli last year is regarded as a significant move towards the use of alternative sources of energy.

Kvirikashvili expressed hope that the government will receive a number of interesting offers from investors regarding construction of the future solar power plants.
