Yerevan Thermal Power Plant (Yerevan TPP) (Armenian: Երևանի ջերմաէլեկտրակայան (Երևանի ՋԷԿ)), is a thermal power plant located about 10 kilometres (6.2 mi) from Yerevan, Armenia.[1] An older, obsolete plant was fueled by natural gas and fuel oil, while the new combined-cycle plant is powered by natural gas and has a capacity of 242 megawatts. It produces a quarter of the country's electricity and is responsible for seasonal electricity swaps with Iran.[2] The director general of the power plant is Hovakim Hovhannisyan.[3][4]
