Armenian scheduled electricity outages

Entities: France · Aragatsotn Province · Aida Azatyan · Peschici · Gegharkunik Province

Overview

The utility’s July‑27 maintenance plan was detailed on 26 July. In Yerevan, cuts were slated for Grigor Lusavorich Street (10:00‑13:00), Zakyan Street (11:00‑16:00), Mashtots Avenue (11:00‑15:00) and Charents Street (11:00‑16:00). Villages in Aragatsotn, Ararat, Gegharkunik, Kotayk, Shirak and Syunik would face interruptions between 11:00 and 17:00, depending on locality. The outages, described as temporary, aim to upgrade the electricity network and are expected to affect thousands of households across the capital and the seven provinces, continuing the series of short‑term suspensions announced earlier in July.

Overall, the coordinated maintenance effort spans multiple districts of Yerevan and several surrounding provinces, with each operation limited to specific daytime windows to minimise disruption.
