The CEO of Big Tehran Electric Power Distribution Company said: Despite the unprecedented increase in air temperature, with the measures taken and the round-the-clock efforts of the company's employees, more than 50,000 kilometers of Tehran's electricity network is in perfect condition in order to provide the comfort of Tehrani citizens with full capacity.
CEO of Big Tehran Power Distribution Company announced: With the unrestricted distribution of more than 100 million kilowatt hours of energy in one day and night, the limit of electricity supply in the city of Tehran was broken in the history of the electricity industry.
The electricity of high-consumption household, commercial and office customers will be cut off after detection and issuing a warning.
The chairman of the board of directors of the syndicate of electricity producing companies said: until 2035, the amount of electricity imbalance will reach 37 thousand megawatts.
A member of the board of directors of the Syndicate of Electricity Producers said: The stoppage of private sector investment in power plant construction caused that during the sixth development plan, even the construction of a power plant was not started by the non-governmental sector.
The deputy of distribution coordination of Tavanir Company announced the increase in electricity consumption due to the warmer weather.
Mustafa Rajabi Mashhadi, CEO of Tovanir Company, said: Household customers who consume electricity without any procedural changes should reduce their consumption, and if we have a problem with stable electricity supply, this group of abusive customers will be the first to cut off electricity.
The Minister of Energy said: "The government's emphasis has always been that the consumption management programs should start from the government departments, and according to this, the distribution companies are obliged to cut off the electricity of those departments that do not reduce their electricity consumption."
40% of the country's electricity consumption on peak days is related to cooling devices, especially gas coolers, which become more active as the air gets hotter.
An energy expert while stressing the need to liberalize industrial electricity prices in the 14th government, said: "Now, there is an imbalance of 15,000 megawatts of electricity at the peak of load."
