BAKU, Azerbaijan, January 8. Azerbaijan will
become a country with a reliable and major electricity generation
capacity in the region, said President of the Republic of
Azerbaijan Ilham Aliyev during his speech at the opening ceremony of Khizi-Absheron Wind
Power Plant in Baku, Trend reports.
''I have no doubt about that. Therefore, I am inviting foreign
investors to invest in this area, as well as in other areas that
require large amounts of electricity. In particular, I invite them
to invest in artificial intelligence, the creation of data centers,
and other areas that require large amounts of energy. This also
includes Azerbaijani companies.
Our country has a wonderful investment environment. We have been
able to attract more than 300 billion dollars in foreign investment
to Azerbaijan. Today, the financial situation of our country is
very positive. I have recently spoken extensively on this issue. I
simply have to say that the reforms we have carried out in this
area and the successes we have achieved are also acknowledged by
the world’s leading rating agencies. It is no coincidence that our
credit rating today has been further improved, rising to the level
of investment grade and a positive outlook,'' President Ilham
Aliyev emphasized.
