Power Consumption Sets Record

The electricity consumption record in Iran was broken once again this year, as different sectors on Monday used close to 72,500 megawatts, the spokesperson of the electricity industry said.
“Last year, the highest demand for electricity consumption, 69,458 MW, was recorded on Aug. 25. However, that record was broken last week and since then, the nationwide consumption hit new highs two more times,” IRNA also quoted Mostafa Rajabi-Mashhadi as saying.
