Incorporating energy subjects in syllabuses and educating schoolchildren about the necessity of power and water conservation will go a long way compared to exempting schools from paying utility bills, the energy minister said.
“There are almost 123,000 state-run schools that consume at least 900 million kilowatt hours of power a year,” Reza Ardakanian was quoted as saying by ILNA.
In 2019 parliament obliged the government to exempt schools from paying utility bills if they use water and electricity within a specific limit.
