Hamedan Power Plant Cuts Gas Consumption

Shahid Mofatteh Power Plant in Hamedan Province has scaled back its gas consumption by 22.8% in the past three months compared with the corresponding period of the last fiscal year (ended March 20, 2018), Hamedan Province Gas Company’s managing director said.
"Over 252 million cubic meters of natural gas have been delivered to Shahid Mofatteh Power Plant in the first quarter of the current fiscal year, showing a sharp decline in the plant’s gas use," Abdollah Fayyaz also told ISNA on Sunday. 
"The power plant, which accounts for 33.2% of the province’s total gas consumption, burnt more than 326 mcm during the similar period of last year."
The power station is located 47 km northeast of Hamedan. With a design capacity of 1,000 MW, it has four units, the first of which was commissioned in 1995 and the last in 1997.
