The head of the Industries Commission of the Tehran Chamber of Commerce, Industries, Mines and Agriculture said on Thursday that Iran synchronization power grid with Russia can be a good procedure for demand response, APA reports citing IRNA.

Alireza Kolahei said to IRNA on Thursday that the projects for synchronizing the electricity networks are common in many European countries and if Iran’s power network joins Russia’s, in addition to the good income, this procedure will also better match the demand for power with the supply.

He added that of course, nowadays, Iran sells its electricity to Iraq, Afghanistan, and Pakistan.

The head of the Industries Commission of the Chamber of Commerce in his remarks added that Iran has also synchronized its power grid with two countries, Turkmenistan and Armenia, which is used at the time of demand peak.

Meanwhile, advisor to Iran’s energy minister for international affairs, Mohammad Ali Farahnakian, told IRNA on January 2, 2022, that the operation of connecting power networks among Russia, Azerbaijan Republic, and Iran will begin in May 2022.
