The challenges implying the new growth model, the need to transition towards renewables and a green economy are relevant everywhere, including the liberated territories,” he pointed out.
According to Nucifora, the difference here is that it is a restart in a way and there is a chance to use projects in Karabakh as a model in terms of creating a green economy-focused economic basis, which will anticipate climate change.
“So, the projects implemented in Karabakh can become a pilot, which may drive the transition towards a more energy efficient, greener economy across the country. It can lead the way in becoming a model for the rest of Azerbaijan,” he explained.
