Two new gas units will come on stream at Tehran’s Tarasht Power Plant, the oldest power station in Iran, in the summer, deputy for projects development at the Thermal Power Plants Holding Company said.
“A total of six new units are to be built and replace the old units of Tarasht Power Plant. The construction of the other four gas units is underway and will be completed in the fall,” Mohammad Ramezani was also quoted as saying by the Energy Ministry’s news service Paven.
“Tarasht Power Plant was established in the 1930s with four steam units and a wet cooling tower, with a nominal capacity of 50 megawatts,” he added.
At the time, the power plant met more than 50% of Tehran's electricity needs.
