The reconstruction project manager of the Persian Gulf Fajr Energy Company announced the completion of the first phase of the complex's restoration in less than 15 days and said: "The reconstruction and expansion program with a capacity equivalent to 2,600 MW in the power plants of Regions One and Two, with the aim of increasing the sustainability of energy supply to the region's industries, is being implemented over a time horizon of about 22 months."
Referring to the increase in electricity delivery to petrochemical industries, the Deputy Minister of Electricity and Energy of the Ministry of Energy said: "The amount of electricity delivered to petrochemical industries has increased ninefold compared to last year."
The attack on South Pars has pushed the gas imbalance from a chronic crisis to a red state. According to the head of the Energy Optimization Organization, the imbalance has doubled this year. Now there is no choice but to immediately implement solutions to reduce consumption, and three sets of measures are on the government's table.
The head of the Joint Industries and Energy Commission of the Islamic Consultative Assembly said: "Continuing the current trend of consumption and waste of energy resources is no longer possible, and officials must consider structural reforms in the field of consumption and promoting a culture of saving."
The head of the Energy Optimization and Strategic Management Organization emphasized that reforming the prices of energy carriers is not on the agenda, saying: "A reward-based model and public benefit will replace price increases."
The Minister of Power referred to advancements in the field of renewable energies and said: 5,000 megawatts of solar power plants will come online by this summer.
As summer approaches and imbalances persist in the power and gas grid, experts emphasize that part of the solution lies not in large-scale projects but in changing everyday consumption habits; simple shifts that, when widespread, can significantly reduce pressure on the energy network.
A member of the Energy Commission of the Islamic Council of Experts emphasized: It is possible that less than 30% of our oil wells may be trapped due to production saturation, first, we can preserve the full production capacity of these wells for domestic consumption, and second, half of these wells will return to production within a month.
In response to the letter from the Minister of Energy to the Director-General of the International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA) regarding the damages caused by hostile attacks on the country's energy infrastructure, the official response from the Director-General of this international body to the Minister of Energy of the Islamic Republic of Iran has been sent.
The Chairman of the Energy Commission of the Islamic Council of Experts expressed his appreciation for the struggle and sacrifice of the employees of the South Caspian Oil Company and other oil companies based on the island during his visit to the Lavan operational area on the third day of the imposed war.
