Lebanon's energy minister in Doha to push Qatari electricity project

Doha, Qatar ·

Lebanese and Qatari officials are holding meetings to reach a final agreement on the electricity plan. The Qatari project includes building two power stations and supplying liquefied natural gas.

Lebanon has suffered chronic electricity shortages for decades, with state supply covering only part of demand, and has turned to outside partners for energy projects.
