The gas-powered unit of Butia Iranian Steel Company’s Combined-Cycle Power Plant in southern Kerman Province was synchronized with the national grid on Thursday, the deputy for projects development at the Thermal Power Plants Holding Company said.
“The unit, which added 310 megawatts of electricity to the grid, runs on advanced F-Class turbines with an efficiency rate of 59%,” Mohammad Ramezani was also quoted as saying by the Energy Ministry’s news portal.
The construction of the plant's steam unit has made 82% progress and is expected to become operational by March 2023, he added.
