Thermal Power Plants Receiving Liquid Fuel for Winter

Almost 70% of the thermal power plants' liquid fuel storage tanks have been filled so that they do not face shortage of feedstock during the cold season when there may not be enough gas to feed power stations, managing director of the National Iranian Oil Refining and Distribution Company.
“Two years ago, about 1.9 billion liters of diesel were delivered to power plants. The figure increased last year and reached 2 billion liters. By the end of the current Iranian year [March 2021-22] 2.2 billion liters of the liquid fuel will have been delivered to the stations,” Jalil Salari was also quoted as saying by Bargh News.
Gas demand in households and industries is predicted to rise in winter, meaning power plants will have to burn liquefied fuel to keep generating power.
