Tehran Hydropower Output Declines

Hydropower production in Tehran Province is projected to decrease by 21% in the current fiscal that started in March compared to 2019, head of hydropower installations at the Tehran Regional Electricity Company said.
“Output from nine hydropower plants in the province peaked to 548,000 megawatt hours in 2019. But this will not exceed 431,000 MW hours this year that ends next March,” IRNA quoted Mohammad Shahriari as saying.
Electricity generation from plants is designed according to projected water conditions. Increase or decrease in power output depends directly on water levels in dams, the official noted.
