Two gas-powered units of Mahtab Kavir combined-cycle power plant in Zarand County, Kerman Province, were synchronized with the national grid on Thursday, the Thermal Power Plants Holding Company’s director for planning said.
“The units, which added 324 megawatts of electricity to the grid, run on advanced F-Class turbines with an efficiency rate of 59%,” the Energy Ministry’s news portal also quoted Abdolrasoul Pishahang as saying.
The new facility is expected to help supply electricity to the south and southeastern regions in the three provinces of Kerman, Hormozgan and Sistan-Baluchestan, he added.
The official noted that upon the completion of the steam unit, the station’s total capacity will reach 484 MW.
