The CEO of the National Iranian Gas Company emphasized that the dependence of about 73 to 74 percent of the country's energy portfolio on natural gas is not seen anywhere else in the world, and said: "By increasing power plant efficiency, developing renewable energies, and increasing the efficiency of industrial equipment, the dependence of the country's energy portfolio can be gradually reduced."

An international affairs analyst said: "By strengthening energy cooperation between Iran and Russia, we can achieve the elimination of the country's energy imbalances in the winter."

A member of the Energy Commission of the Islamic Consultative Assembly said: A meeting of the headquarters to eliminate imbalances on the issue of energy supply and winter fuel was held with the presence of the deputy ministers of oil and energy.

The CEO of the National Iranian Gas Company emphasized the need for industry standardization to prevent virtual gas exports and said: "By changing the fuel mix and predicting fuel diversity with the management carried out by the Ministry of Oil, we hope to be able to implement the best fuel management in the network."

The Ministry of Petroleum in the 14th government has put four main axes on the agenda: price policies, non-price policies, fuel portfolio diversification, and combating off-grid supply and smuggling, and has taken a major step towards curbing the gap between supply and demand, efficiency, justice, and sustainability in the country's energy distribution system.

The Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Association of Oil, Gas and Petrochemical Contractors (APEC), stating that EPC contracts are the main contract governing the country's construction industry, said: "To achieve development, it is necessary to facilitate oil contracts and synergize the government and the private sector."

The Minister of Energy said: "We have left the electricity peak behind us, but we still need the support of subscribers until the end of the summer to end the blackouts."

Referring to the signing of a public-private partnership agreement to complete the Tabas Thermal Power Plant, the CEO of the Thermal Power Company said: "This will be a major step towards exploiting this project and diversifying the country's portfolio of energy carriers and primary sources of electricity production."

While the Arash gas field has become a new flashpoint for border tensions in the Persian Gulf, Iran continues to insist on the path of diplomacy, a path that has neither thwarted the claims of Kuwait and Saudi Arabia nor stopped the plundering of the country’s energy resources. Isn’t it time for Tehran to deploy drilling rigs and defend its national wealth instead of fruitless talks?

The head of the Energy Commission of the Khorasan Razavi Chamber of Commerce criticized the government's interventions in the energy sector, saying: "As long as the government competes with the private sector instead of supporting it and there are no sufficient protective laws, investment in the energy sector will face challenges."
