BAKU, Azerbaijan, May 31. In the mid-term perspective, Azerbaijan aims to become an exporter of “green energy”, President of the Republic of Azerbaijan Ilham Aliyev said in the appeal to the participants of the Baku Energy Week, Trend reports.

'By utilizing its ample natural resources, our country has made important contributions to the global agenda of increasing alternative and renewable energy production, de-carbonization and diversification of energy sources. In the mid-term perspective, Azerbaijan aims to become an exporter of electricity obtained from alternative sources and “green energy”, hydrogen.

In particular, the implementation of large-scale projects in liberated territories, including the creation of a “green energy” zone in Karabakh and Eastern Zangezur, will turn the country into an alternative energy producer and exporter.

The expansion of the Southern Gas Corridor before 2027 and other prospects related to the transportation of energy resources will serve to further enhance the strategic role of our country in diversified energy supply and energy security of our partners," President Ilham Aliyev said.
