"Georgia is not highly dependent on natural gas imports from Russia, more than 90% of our needs are met by Azerbaijan. We have no other source," David Narmania, chairman of the Georgian National Regulatory Commission for Energy and Water Supply, has told the local bureau of Report.

According to him, the gas supply from Russia has not exceeded 10% for many years.

“In 2021, this figure was 15%, which was due to an accident in the gas pipeline in Azerbaijan in February-March. After the consequences of the accident were eliminated, the indicator returned to the previous level.

In conformity with this year's forecast, Georgia plans to import 2,695 million cubic meters of natural gas. Of this volume, 2,514 million cubic meters, or 93.28% will be imported from Azerbaijan. The volume of gas to be supplied from Russia will be 200 million cubic meters.
