Iran and Turkey have started power trade with the help of a high-voltage direct-current (HVDC) back-to-back substation, the spokesman of the electricity sector said.
“The two states are currently exchanging close to 600 megawatts of power on a daily basis, which will double as soon as technical glitches are resolved gradually,” Mostafa Rajabi-Mashhadi was also quoted as saying by ISNA.
“Cross-border power trade with neighbors, including Azerbaijan, Russia and Turkey, is a top priority of the Energy Ministry, he added.
The spokesman explained that under a new swap deal, Iran will export 600 MW of electricity per day to Turkey in winter and import the same volume when domestic demand soars in summer.
