Analyzing Nuclear Power in Armenia
Even though Armenia has only one operating nuclear reactor, this unit supplied nearly 30% of the total electricity produced in recent years. Electricity consumption per capita in Armenia is about 2400 kWh/yr. Natural gas, which is imported from Russia, is the country’s main source of primary energy.
In 2003, Armenia turned over financial control of Metsamor to Russia's state-owned power monopoly, Unified Energy Systems, in accordance with a swap agreement that settled the plant's $40 million debt to Russian nuclear fuel suppliers.
The report - Analyzing Nuclear Power in Armenia - by Aruvian Research, explores the importance of nuclear power in today’s world, with Section One being dedicated to Understanding the Basics of Nuclear Power as well as an analysis of the global nuclear power industry.
The report looks at the basics of the nuclear industry that is, how a plant works, analyzing and understanding the fuel cycle, the various components which are involved in the working of a nuclear power plant, and much more. Economics, issues and barriers, and other such factors are also explored in-depth in this report. Market statistics of the global nuclear power industry is also included ranging from the year 2010 to 2019 (forecast).
This offering includes a complete analysis of the Armenian Nuclear Power Industry, including an industry profile, industry developments, Uranium fuel cycle developments, along with other relevant industry information. This research offering is a comprehensive A to Z guide on the Armenian nuclear power industry.
