Iran Power Consumption Down 15 Percent in Two Weeks

Iran's electricity consumption, which had leaped during the summer heat wave in the past few weeks, has fallen by some 15%, giving the government great relief.
According to the Iran Grid Management Company’s data, power load has averaged at 49,500 megawatts in the past few days, while demand peaked at an all-time high of 58,000 MW two weeks ago, ILNA reported.
The situation resulted in hours-long power outages in many cities, including the capital city of Tehran, affecting many businesses and citizens.
