Uzbekistan and Kazakhstan are interested in transferring electricity from Central Asia to Europe through the “green energy corridor Caspian-Black Sea-Europe”.
The matter was discussed at a meeting between Azerbaijani Energy Minister Parviz Shahbazov and Hungarian Foreign Minister Peter Szijjarto in Budapest.
The ministers emphasized that large supplies of “green energy” from Azerbaijan will play an important role in the implementation of this project. The strategic importance of the project was assessed in terms of creating a bridge between Azerbaijan and the EU, including Hungary.
The importance of Azerbaijani gas supplies to the Hungarian market was also discussed at the meeting. The prospects for supplies on a long-term basis, as well as the development of cooperation with Hungarian companies in oil and gas projects, were considered.
As part of his visit to Hungary, Shahbazov also met with the Hungarian Minister of Energy, Csaba Lantos. The ministers discussed issues of cooperation in the field of hydrocarbons, green energy, etc.
