Azerbaijan itself does not need as much renewable energy as we plan, and therefore our goal is export.

Axar.az reports that President Ilham Aliyev expressed this opinion in an interview with "Euronews" television.

"A very thoughtful approach to the use of renewable energy should be applied so that electricity is produced as much as possible and natural gas is saved so that it can be transported mainly to Europe as it is now needed. Many issues that depend only on our internal agenda and need to be solved, I have no doubt that they will be fully realized. However, we must solve the issues that require international partnership with our partners," the head of state emphasized.
