Following the rise in the volume of water in Zayanderud Dam, its hydroelectric power plant was reconnected to the national grid after remaining grounded for five months, the Isfahan Regional Water Company’s deputy for conservation and operations said.
“The only hydropower plant in Isfahan Province, which went off grid last October due to water shortage in the dam reservoir, has become operational again,” Mahmoud Chitian was also quoted as saying by the Energy Today’s website.
According to the latest statistics, 200 million cubic meters of water are stored in Zayanderud Dam while it has a nominal capacity of 1 billion cubic meters.
The current volume of water in the dam shows that it is currently only 20% full.
