Mutually Beneficial Project: Georgia's Significant Step towards European Integration

An important event in the field of energy and sustainable development: the Deputy Prime Minister of Georgia, Levan Davitashvili, spoke about the importance of the new project of laying an underwater power cable through the Black Sea. This stage is becoming crucial for Georgia not only from a political point of view, but also from an energy point of view in the context of European integration. After meeting with the European Commissioner for Energy in Tbilisi, Davitashvili stressed that this project benefits not only Georgia, but also the entire European Union. The energy dialogue between Georgia and the European Union, which started on Thursday, has become a key event aimed at deepening cooperation in the energy sector.

The meeting discussed prospects for the development of ties, current and planned reforms in the energy sector of Georgia, as well as issues of energy efficiency and the development of renewable energy sources. Special attention is paid to the project of the Black Sea underwater electric cable.

Davitashvili stressed that the project represents mutually beneficial cooperation, strengthening the energy security of Europe and opening up new prospects for Georgia and its energy system.

For Georgia, connecting to the EU energy network via this cable will not only strengthen energy security, but also an opportunity for the exchange of renewable energy, marking a new stage in the development of a stable and sustainable energy future for the region. The underwater cable project carries not only infrastructure development, but also a symbol of Georgia's integration with the European Union.

The Deputy Prime Minister expressed confidence that the dialogue with the European Union will help Georgia count on support in implementing the necessary reforms. According to him, Georgia has already brought its legislation closer to the European one in many areas, including energy efficiency, and is actively implementing a new energy efficiency labeling system.
