Bandar Abbas Power Plant Indigenizes 90 Percent of Parts, Equipment

Bandar Abbas Power Plant in Hormozgan Province was built by the Italian company Franco Tosi and until recently 100% of its equipment were imported, managing director of the plant said.
“However, with the help of knowledge-based companies and efforts of Iranian engineers, 90% of the parts and equipment used in the plant are now manufactured inside the country,” Hossein Salimi added.
Constructed in 1980, the power station is now 42 years old and since it has been operating for over four decades, its parts need repairs or replacement.
