Forty million cubic meters of gas and 58 million liters of liquefied petroleum gas are delivered to power plants daily, and despite having 1.7 billion liters of fuel stored in tanks, the risk of winter power outages has decreased; however, the sustainability these conditions remains under evaluation.
While this fall has been marked by unprecedented rainfall and reduced hydroelectric power plant reserves in many northern provinces, estimates indicate a 4 to 6 degree drop in temperature starting next week; a situation that could be a warning for the gas network.
In the summer, given the widespread use of electric cooling devices and considering Iran's climate, it is acceptable that Iran's mostly worn-out power plants will have trouble supplying electricity. But what about the power outages in the winter?
