Azerbaijan is carrying out major electricity infrastructure upgrades across Khojaly and Khojavand districts as part of efforts to provide residents returning to their ancestral homes with reliable and uninterrupted power supplies.

AzerNEWS reports that Azerishiq OJSC is continuing reconstruction and modernisation works across Karabakh and East Zangezur, with electricity networks being rebuilt in nearly 30 villages and settlements across the two districts.

According to the company, internal and external electricity infrastructure is being renewed in the settlements, while nearly 100 35/0.4 kV complete transformer substations of various capacities have been installed.

The works also include the installation of 0.4 kV and 35 kV metal poles and the construction of insulated power lines to strengthen the electricity network.

In Khojaly city, 10 modern transformer substations of different capacities have been installed.

Reconstruction works have already been completed in the villages of Badara, Ballıca, Dashbulag, Təzəbinə, Seyidbəyli and Khanurdu.

The installation of 35 kV self-supporting insulated wires is currently continuing in Shushakend and Khanobad villages.

In Khojavand district, families relocated to Hadrut and Girmizi Bazar settlements, as well as Sos village, have also been provided with stable and reliable electricity supplies.

Alongside the reconstruction of electricity networks in these settlements, repair and restoration works have been carried out on existing 10 kV and 35 kV overhead lines and power transformers. Smart electricity meters have also been installed.

Reconstruction and repair works are currently continuing in the district centre and in the villages of Chorekli, Guneykhirman, Garakend, Guzeykhirman and Khanoba.
