Tarasht Power Plant Renovation Underway

Operations to replace old steam units with new gas units in Tarasht Power Plant in Tehran are on track and expected to be completed by the end of the current Iranian year (March 2024), the plant’s deputy for planning and engineering said.
“According to the plan, six new gas units, with a nominal capacity of 9.8 megawatts each, will replace the old steam units with massive water consumption,” Amir Hossein Hassan Ahi was also quoted as saying by the Energy Ministry’s news service.
The renovation of the facility will double its efficiency from 25% to 50%, he said, noting that in the 1990s, the power plant met more than 50% of Tehran's electricity needs.
