Historical Overview
The history of the “Scientific Research Institute of Energy” CJSC goes back to 1948. During 1948 -1963 it was in the membership of National Academy of Sciences of the Republic of Armenia initially acting as an electrical engineering laboratory and was reshaped as an institute thereafter. Three scientific research institutes were separated from the Institute of Energy afterwards, namely: “Institute of Cable Techniques”, “Kaytsak” and “ArmAtom” (formerly known as High Voltage Laboratory). It was designated as “Scientific Research Institute of Energy” in 1994. Currently, the Scientific Research Institute of Energy is a closed joint-stock company with 100% of shares in the State ownership. The Company carries out its economic activity as a commercial organization. Over the years of its activity the Company has been collaborating with “Settlement Center” CJSC, “Electric Networks of Armenia” CJSC, “Armenian Nuclear Power Plant” CJSC, “High Voltage Grids” CJSC, Armenia Renewable Resources and Energy Efficiency Fund/R2E2, as well as with other local major non-energy structures and international organizations (United States International Development Agency/USAID, World Bank, KfW, IFC, International Energy Agency, International Atomic Energy Agency, etc.).
The Company has a large base of devices and equipment with modern software and has developed its administrative structure.
