As for generation capacities, it is sufficient to note that based on the signed contracts, wind and solar power plants with a total capacity of 6 gigawatts will be built by 2030, and overall 8 gigawatts by 2032.
President Ilham Aliyev made the statement today at the official opening ceremony of the 240 MW "Khizi-Absheron" Wind Power Plant, constructed by Saudi Arabia's ACWA Power.
The head of state noted: "If we add the potential of hydroelectric power plants, our capacity will, of course, grow further. Over the past five years, we have built about 40 small hydroelectric power plants using public funds in Garabagh and East Zangezur. Today, their total potential exceeds 300 megawatts."
