The text of the Comprehensive and Enhanced Partnership Agreement was signed between Armenia and the EU at the end of last year. The provision of the agreement on the closure of the Nuclear Power Plant states that it is necessary to approve a roadmap or action plan, which intends to substitute the Metsamor NPP with new capacities necessary to ensure Armenia’s energy security and sustainable development.
