Armenia parser format changed

[FelixDQ]

It was recently fixed in https://github.com/tmrowco/electricitymap-contrib/pull/2571, but it went down again.

From kibana:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/home/src/electricitymap/feeder/lib/fetch_data.py", line 175, in launch_parsers
    objs = res.get(timeout)

I'm looking for a parser to fix/add, is there any other info I should be aware of other than what's in this bug? From looking at the parser itself it looks like the data URL (http://epso.am/poweren.htm) returns a blank page currently. Another URL mentioned in the parser (http://epso.am/scada.htm) requires a password to view.

Is there a contact available at the Armenian data source to query about why the page is broken?

Awesome! Unfortunately, I don't think that we have had any previous contact with the data provider. I found an email on their website if you want to reach out: office@energyoperator.am

Let me know if you need help with something or if I should reach out to them (though data providers often react positively when people from the community reach out)

Ok thanks, I've emailed them. Will update here with any reply.

I've emailed twice now but no reply.

I've looked into the AM parser a week or so ago and the entire website http://epso.am is gone.

I've looked at a few other related Armenian websites like Armenian Energy Agency, Electric Networks of Armenia, HIGH VOLTAGE ELECTRIC NETWORKS and http://www.minenergy.am/en/page/539 but none of them have real-time data.

So the AM parser is unlikely to start working again.

Thanks for the investigation work! I'm going to close this issue for now. Feel free to reopen if there's any updates
