Iran's energy minister inaugurates large wind farm capable of producing 50 megawatts of electricity

It is currently the largest wind farm in Iran's eastern region


The power plant is equipped with twenty 2.5 megawatt turbines.

It covers about 1,000 hectares in Nimruz County, located northwest of Zabol. Construction of the plant, which began in 2020, is expected to save more than 250 million litres of water and 30 million litres of diesel for every 100 megawatts of renewable energy generated annually.

The Renewable Energy and Energy Efficiency Organisation of Iran (SATBA) predicts that the Mil-Nader region could generate up to 700 megawatts of electricity in the coming years. This is reported by Tehran Times, a partner of TV BRICS.

Since August 2021, the Iranian government has been accelerating the development of renewable energy projects, attracting investments and implementing new strategies. This has brought the capacity of renewable energy power plants in the country to 1,085 megawatts and further expansion is planned.

With a focus on reducing dependence on fossil fuels, the country aims for renewable energy to play a larger role in the national electricity grid. Rajabi-Mashhadi emphasised that private investors can contribute to the construction of 4,500 megawatts of solar power plants in the near future.
