To help stabilize power supply in Ahvaz, the capital of Khuzestan Province, a 230/33-kilovolt power substation and a 132/33-kilovolt mobile substation were synchronized with the national power grid, the head of Iran Power Generation, Distribution and Transmission Company said.
“Costing $30 million, the new installations will prevent industrial towns in and around Ahvaz from the adverse impact of voltage fluctuations in the hot summer days when electricity consumption peaks in the region,” Arash Kordi was also quoted as saying by ISNA.
“The two substations are equipped with 100-megavolt-ampere and 30-megavolt-ampere transformers, which will improve the stability of power transmission in the local grid,” he said.
