Proposed Investment Plan for Electricity Imports from Turkmenistan Discussed

The Second Session of the Inter-Ministerial Investment Committee was Held at Marmarin Palace.  During this session, investment plans in the areas of solar power generation and the import of electricity from Turkmenistan were presented and provisionally approved. It was decided that the Ministry of Water and Energy and Da Afghanistan Breshna Sherkat would hold further meetings with the companies presenting these plans to conduct technical, economic, and financial analyses. The results of these analyses will be reported in the fourth meeting of the said committee.
