Gilan Province's second combined heat and power (CHP) plant became operational in Bandar Anzali Free Trade Zone on Saturday, head of the provincial power company said.
"Costing $11 million, the small-scale power plant with 25 megawatt capacity was completed in less than two years with the help of the private sector [Caspian Power Plant Generator Company]," Azim Bolbolabadi was quoted as saying by the Energy Ministry's news portal.
The venture with distributed generation systems was partly financed by the National Development Fund of Iran.
"Not only can the plant supply the Aanzali FTZ with stable power, but with 55% efficiency rate it also will be able to support the Rasht electricity power grid during peak demand," he added.
