Power Consumption Alarming 

Electricity consumption in Iran crossed 65,000 megawatts on Sunday, an alarming level for early summer, which is over 3,000 MW higher than on the same day (June 26) of last year.
The power use has reached 65 GW at the beginning of summer while the high volume of consumption was registered last year in the middle of the hot season when temperature was higher, IRNA reported.
At present, the temperature averages 38 degrees centigrade and is predicted to hit 41 degrees centigrade by the weekend, which means cooling devices would be used far longer, leading to higher electricity use as well.
