Output from hydroelectric power plants will reach 10,500 gigawatt hours by the end of the current fiscal in March, director of Iran Hydroelectric Power Management Center Farbod Estiri said.
Hydroelectric plants have an installed capacity of 12,000 megawatts, but produce less because water levels in dams have plunged, the Energy Ministry news portal Paven reported.
“The amount of hydroelectric power generated in the first 10 months of the year (March-December 2018) was 8,750 GWh, down 37% compared to the same period last year,” Estiri said.
