Solar Rooftops Will Augment Income of Deprived Families

A total of 2,000 rooftop photovoltaic panels, each with a capacity of 5 kilowatts, will be set up for underprivileged families in North Khorasan Province by the end of the next fiscal (March 2021), managing director of North Khorasan Electric Distribution Company said.
“In addition to expanding clean energy, the solar panels will generate income for the deprived families,” Bargh News quoted Alireza Sabouri as saying.
Iran is overly dependent on thermal power and renewables account for only 900 megawatts of the total annual output of 82,000 MW.
