With the European Government

Azerbaijani Government and European Union are strong patterns in energy and other sector. Azerbaijan and EU are working on many projects.One of the main project that they are working on is building of a pipe that connect Azerbaijan with Europe, providing a major transit route for Gas and Oil. After the establishment of State Agency European Union started and still continues supporting the program that is founded by Azerbaijani Government for “the increased use of alternative and renewable energy sources.”

General Information

Further development of renewable energy sources will help in achieving new levels of energy security. Oil and gas reserves will not be available forever, so the countries involved in the oil and gas production from fossil fuels, are limited to energy sources that can run out, that why this countries must promote sustainable development of alternative energy sources.

As the potential of renewable and alternative energy are rich in Azerbaijan Republic. President of Azerbaijan has created under the Ministry of Industry and Energy “the State Agency on Alternative and Renewable Energy Sources”, so that much of this potential could become reality.

In addition, there is a favorable natural condition for the development of renewable energy sources in Azerbaijan. First of all, there is a high potential for wind power, especially on the Absheron Peninsula. Wind speed year-round 3 - 7 m / s which is perfect for a wind generators. Azerbaijan has 260-280sunnydayswich is considered to be effectivly useful for solar energy. With the government of Azerbaijan State Agency has developedan experimentalhybrid, thi shybry station will produce5.5MWof powerandwillsupplyelectricity tothe city ofGobustan, thewindpowerplants will produce2.7MW, the solar panels will produce 1.8MWand the bio-gas plant will produce1.1MW,

The overall goal is
The overall objective ofthis station is to bethedirectionfor the development ofrenewable andalternative energy sources, and will serve asa goodexample ofsustainabledevelopment renewableenergy in developing countries.
In theproduction ofrenewable energywill providethe following:
ReductionofCO2
Protection of the environment.
Improve the level ofhealth care.
An independentpower supply.

Main goals of this Hybriid station are:

The creation of renewable energy.
Not only for Azerbaijan , a good example for the entire region
Modern training center.

Independent Control Center and the smart use of network systems. Testing of new technologies in the field of renewable and alternative. enegry .
to educate students and others on how to work with technologies involved in the sector of renewable and alternative enegy.

This Station uses differen combination of a variety of renewable and alternative sources
Wind power - 2.7 MW -
Solar power - 1.8 MW
Bio - gas plant - 1.1 MW
The use of heat pumps
