TEHRAN- The executor of the 3-megawatt solar power plant projects elaborated on the process of constructing these power plants in the country.
Mohammad Doust-Mohammadi, the executor of the 3-megawatt solar power plant projects, stated: “At the end of Bahman last year (February 2024), under the directive of the President regarding addressing the electricity supply-demand imbalance, a mission was assigned to construct 1,000 solar power plants with a capacity of 3 megawatts each. This initiative was placed on the agenda of the Ministry of Energy and the SATBA (Renewable Energy and Energy Efficiency Organization) group.”
He added: “Overall, after six months, we are witnessing that these power plants, which were planned to facilitate grid connection, are gradually being connected to the national electricity grid.”
“Today, we see that 54 megawatts from these power plants are being connected to the grid in the provinces of Qom, Tehran, Semnan, Alborz, Markazi, Qazvin, and Isfahan”, he added.
The energy production of these power plants amounts to 268 kilowatt-hours, which is equivalent to saving 26 million cubic meters of liquid fuel used in thermal power plants, the official further announced .
