Technological solutions and supply capabilities for the Green Energy Corridor project were presented in Baku, according to the Energy Ministry, as cited by Report.az. The presentation took place at the forum "Green Energy Corridor: From Techno-Economic Justification to Implementation," where the project's technological solutions and practical implementation options were discussed.

The session was moderated by Maksim Zubov, Vice President for Turkey, Central Asia and Western Europe at Siemens Energy. Representatives of Jan De Nul, Prysmian, NKT, ZTT, Hengtong, Hellenic Cable and Orient Cable took part. Presentations focused on high-voltage direct current (HVDC) technologies, subsea electrical cable manufacturing and installation, engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) services, and supply chain capacity.
