"As you know, this is a project supported via our REPowerEU plan, our new Memorandum of Understanding on a Strategic Partnership in the Field of Energy with Azerbaijan. We aim to increase its capacity to 20 billion cubic meters annually as of 2027. On top of our political support, we are now also exploring with the EBRD the possibility of providing financial support to facilitate its expansion," she said.
