Armenia due its geographical and climate properties is well-suited for the solar energy utilization. According to the Ministry of Energy Infrastructure and Natural Resources of Armenia the country is capable of producing 1850 kWh/m per year. For comparison European countries are capable of around 1000 kWh/m per year on average. Two main panel types utilized in Armenia are the photovoltaic and thermal solar panels. The
