Iran has inaugurated a 50 MW wind farm in its southern province of Sistan-Baluchestan<\/strong>, Tehran Times<\/a> reports. The Renewable Energy and Energy Efficiency Organization<\/a> of Iran expects the project to generate some 700 MW of electricity in the coming years, saving around 250 mn litres of water and 30 mn litres of diesel for every 100 MW of electricity generated. <\/p>\n

Part of bigger plans? <\/strong>Iran\u2019s Economic Council approved the construction of wind farms with a capacity of <\/span>up to 3 GW<\/a> last November. Iran plans to <\/span>add 10 GW of renewable capacity<\/a> by August 2025. It also signed MoUs with the private sector last year to set up new renewable power plants across the country.<\/span><\/p>\n

Iran has a long way to go: <\/strong>Wind and solar only contributed 0.6%<\/a> to Iran\u2019s electricity generation in 2023 while hydropower contributed around 4%. The country still majorly relies on fossil fuels which accounted for 94% of its power generation last year.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
