"Azerbaijan continues to set an Example. Azerbaijan plans to build wind and solar power plants with a total capacity of 2.7 GW by 2030," Azerbaijan’s Minister of Energy, Parviz Shahbazov, said during his speech at the second day of the 2nd Baku Climate Action Week (BCAW), APA-Economics reports.
According to him, this step will triple the installed capacity of renewable energy sources in the country, reaching 4 GW, and will prevent the emission of 3.2 million tons of greenhouse gases.
The minister noted that over the next two years, 10 new power plants will be integrated into the grid, along with battery storage systems with a capacity of 250 MW and a storage volume of 500 MW, to manage 2 GW of renewable energy.
“One of these plants, the 240 MW ‘Khizi-Absheron’ Wind Power Plant, is scheduled to be commissioned in November,” Parviz Shahbazov emphasized.
