Rise in Liquid Fuel Use in Power Plants

The total liquid fuel delivered to the power plants across Iran last year (ended March 19) was 13.8 billion liters, of which about 4.3 billion liters were mazut and 9.5 billion liters diesel, managing director of Iran's Thermal Power Plants Holding Company said.
“Last year 50% of diesel and 30% of the mazut were used by power plants,” IRNA quoted Mohsen Tarztalab as saying.
This amount of liquid fuel consumption last year shows a significant rise compared to the previous year. In fiscal March 2018-19, domestic power plants consumed 6 billion liters of diesel and 3.5 billion liters of mazut.
