[000:00:00;00] we will have this question from the officials of the ministry of energy and review everything that i have told you . if you are interested , please follow this discussion until the end. you are with the economy desk, without preamble, we will go to the statistics and pictures that we have prepared for you. the first is to give an overview of the indicators of the electricity industry from 1400 to 1403. now that we are talking, you know that our electricity subscribers from 38 million subscribers reached 42 million subscribers in 143, that is, in these 3 years, you can see how much the number of subscribers has increased proportionally

you can see that the capacity of electricity. but after that, due to the fact that electricity subscribers have increased, we always have an increase in electricity consumption every year, which you can see in peak times from 67,200 to 77,000. we are talking about this number of nearly 79,000 megawatts, which has also set a record. one thing you should note here is that we used to export 1,400, 1,401 electricity, but in 14,023 , this number became zero because there is more domestic demand. naturally, it was electricity and our exports stopped another important point is the renewable capacity , which was 923 megawatts in 1403 , became 2000 in 1403, and has doubled, but in the sixth plan, that is, in the previous governments, it should have reached 10,000, which means a very special and important contribution. he used to say that, for whatever reason, this number has not been reached

, but of course in the program about these reasons. we will talk. please see the next picture together , but do they provide us with electricity? the most important unit that provides electricity in the country and provides 80% of our electricity consumption are our thermal power plants that you have in blue. may you see, next are our 11 hydroelectric power plants, in that order, wind and solar nuclear power plants, the number of renewable power plants that we saw together was small. please see the next picture together. we have seen where the electricity was produced and how each part produced it, but the main consumption is especially in the summer, when now i am waiting for your presence to cool down and these things are used in household work. they are using more, you can see that the industries have a lot of consumption, but with understanding the contracts that the ministry of energy has with industrial towns and manufacturing companies usually means that

they move their holidays. or instead of one day, they will close for two days so that household subscribers will have fewer power outages, which of course has a legal point that we have talked about in different programs. we can see the electricity consumption more precisely if you look at the year 1400, that is, within one year, the electricity consumption has increased by 87 from 73 thousand megawatts to 79 thousand megawatts on august 17, 1403, which is a 10-year growth. the last year was 4 and 7, which means that compared to the long -term average, in the last year we had double the increase in electricity consumption. we are telling you that we have reached 77,800 megawatts from 48,000 megawatts, which means that in the space of almost 10 years, electricity consumption in the whole country has set a record and

has doubled. please see the next picture together . look at the overall average, that in the last year alone , we had a growth in consumption that was twice as high as this. what is the reason for this? it was that even compared to last year, we had more heating even at night, according to the statistics published by the meteorological organization and the ministry of energy , the difference between day and night was greater than in previous years, and the heat in the year experienced was unprecedented. we tried to run the picture, please see it together, but why did we get into this situation, why is there so much dissatisfaction. it has increased, only in the renewable discussion, i told you that we should have reached the capacity of 10,000 megawatts, but in total , now that the seventh program has started , we do not have 200 megawatts more production, while most of the countries developed in the world, going in the direction that their electricity supply portfolio is more from renewable energies than fossil energies, unlike us, but you can see that from the government of the late hashemi, we had 55% development of electricity capacity, in the government of mr. khatami, 60%

of mr. adam mr. ahmadinejad. mr. rouhani's government , we had an increase in power plant capacity in 21. the next picture , we can see together this decrease and we are seeing together. if you look at this graph from 1358 , we did not have a very balanced, continuous and good development at all. some governments have developed power plant capacity, some governments like the ones with statistics we saw in the previous example that this did not happen very often. let's go see the next picture together. there is another point, besides electricity in general , in our country, our electricity consumption is very different from other places. but in general, our intensity of consumption is compared to what is inside the country. it can be twice the world average. this is white. the intensity of consumption and intensity of energy in the world as you can see is decreasing, which means that the countries of the world are using their energy, whether it is fossil or electricity , whatever they have in their energy portfolio , but this is happening in our country

it is completely the opposite, and you can see that this graph is moving upwards , and naturally, this process will not take place until a series of structural reforms, which we will talk about in the program . it will not stop. please let us see the next picture , but these events have a reason. and the income means what the government is spending to produce electricity with what it is getting its money from the people and the industry. it doesn't have a socket, so many of us are not careful about our electricity consumption. that's why, for example, in tehran, where everyone says and the statistics show

, water coolers can be used. in the last one or two years, it has increased . for example, if you have a very ordinary unit, for example, 50 or 60 meters, and you turn on the air conditioner from morning to night, you will pay two or three million times for electricity, but you will still produce more than what has electricity. you may not pay too much for what it is. in addition to the fact that this has happened, we have a fuel supply imbalance. in the previous program , the manager of the thermal power plant pointed out that the liquid fuel delivered to our power plant is not very accurate and regular. but we are looking at it in the long term , there is a point that is very important , the lack of modernization and improvement of the electricity transmission and distribution system, which increases the network's transmission. besides , we were together in the last years, if you are in the next picture let's see, we were not able to attract good investment because it is expensive . besides, we

did not receive much from the private sector in the past years. they have challenges , and mainly until the past years, obviously , they were always debtors to the ministry of energy in terms of finances and the ministry of energy, and they cannot always be behind. they were able to have renovations, and what should they do in your presence? it was the most important reason why these events had not happened until now. you see, i told you, my investor , that these events did not happen because of this, we are completely behind the five-year plans that have been written so far, because of this disparity between investments. the consumption that we used to do with all the introduction that i have presented to you is a report of my colleagues in the energy group of sed and sima news agency. now i invite you to go and see it together . we will come back and start our conversation program with the guest. the temperature is around 80 degrees and the workers are working, of course, not in the mine or in the furnaces.

metal smelting is the place where the workers and engineers are trying to stabilize the electricity grid at a height of 20 meters . which should not be left out of the circuit, approximately 44 degrees water enters the reservoir , then it passes through the parking lot, and finally, 33 degrees water enters the condenser of the turbine. the power plant facilities are controlled to the best form. we don't know how many times to serve , once, twice, three times, it doesn't matter how many times yes, i have to express my duty to get ready to work here. unfortunately, some of these pipes are rotten. they need to be replaced

. the route needs to be corrected. god willing , our electricity production process will be stable. in this power plant, about a quarter of isfahan's electricity is supplied. the esfahan power plant is supplied with five heater unit with a nominal capacity of 835 megawatts. and 2, the gas unit with a practical capacity of 42 megawatts and an age of around 55 years, fortunately, since the beginning of this year , it has produced more than half a billion kilowatt hours of electrical energy, but our responsibility for the hard work of these workers is only for consumption. we request all our compatriots to comply with the consumption pattern and by controlling their consumption , especially during the peak time , help our network in producing sustainable electricity. about 7 thousand megawatts of isfahan province are needed at the peak of electricity consumption, 80 % of which is in the power plant. in this exhausting heat, many people

join hands to prepare a stable electricity network for various uses and prevent frequent blackouts. arslan kazemi , isfahan broadcasting news agency, well , we saw and heard the report of my colleague here in our studio, mr. raji mashhadhi, the manager of tavanir company, is present and we will talk with them, god willing, mr. raji mashhadhi, greetings to you, that's the last. the details of the state of electricity consumption in the country, in the name of allah , the most merciful, the most merciful. 800 megawatts reached peak demand and grew by 8.7% and this is still hot. the numbers that prevail in the country even in this week when we

expected the weather to cool down from the end last week, with the rains, which did not happen, and we did not have a drop in temperature, and the country was still hot . this week , we had more than 79,000 megawatts for two days and 7,860 megawatts last day, so these growths are very heavy growths for the countries. the so-called industrial or advanced. we know that it is proportionate and that if we can optimize , these growths can be realized, implying that

we can respond to the new demands as well. eight and 7. because of the heat which is unprecedented in the country, very heavy records have happened both in the so-called maximum temperature and in the minimum temperature, in some parts of the country, for example , their temperature has increased up to four and a half degrees compared to the long-term average , this low temperature means that half it gets hot at night , it means that cooling devices and air conditioners work 24 hours a day in the middle of the night. and this means that there is a double pressure on the power grids . i will give you a confusing statistic. dear viewers, you should know that in tehran, the normal growth is usually around 4.4 and a half percent, and in the tehran region, i am going to tell you. i mean the provinces of tehran, alborz and qom. this year , this number has increased by 138. does it mean that it is because of the heat or there are other reasons? yes, you see , it is in these three provinces. usually, we

do not have industrial or major demands. it is mostly the domestic sector. anyway, it is popular. the use of air conditioners, especially the study that was conducted based on the consumption of dear citizens, shows that the trends are towards air conditioners, which was also mentioned in your report, and you know that it increases consumption a lot . this increase in consumption, in addition to well , it will be difficult to provide it in the local area network section of the network there should be some kind of reconstruction so that they can provide this service upstream of the transmission networks. they should all be connected to the same service. to those who use air conditioners , i would like to say this to my dear people that we can almost say that out of every five household subscribers. we have four subscribers who comply and their consumption is below the standard, that is, one subscriber who does not comply is sometimes up to 10 times more than a subscriber who does not comply. so to speak

, it consumes electricity with sub-standard consumption, so this will impose a lot of pressure on the power grids, and you know that the heat itself is also it affects the power plants, that is , they have a natural power drop in the power plants, because this heat causes that now in the condensing sections , which we call condensers, for example , there is not a proper vacuum drop, and it is almost what we calculated in the previous program. each grade is 3 to 4 thousand megawatts of efficiency of this power. yes, let me tell you this, almost, for example, suppose that today at 11 o'clock, for example, the production of the country's thermal power plant is 55 thousand megawatts, at 3 o'clock or so , the temperature of the country will increase by 34 degrees on average. around 53 thousand megawatts means approximately 2,000 megawatts. we have a decrease in production in the power plant . this will also affect the networks themselves . the transformers are cooled by fans. when the so-called outside air heats up, these fans also work

. in fact, they cannot control the temperature of the wire. actually bring the screws and oils to a favorable condition and this is all the conditions. it increases the pressure on the equipment. too much pressure on the equipment is one of the factors that lead to an accident and the equipment breaks down, and in the summers when we actually have our equipment so called the load on them is maximized and our reserve or reserve equipment is minimized. if a piece of equipment is removed, until the so-called repair forces arrive at the place and repair it and return it to its original state. it will take time and usually our subscribers feel this part more in the summer than in other seasons. we have this in other seasons . first, it happens less often . we

have two or three transformers, now these 3 transformers due to this increase in consumption the maximum so-called amount of consumption. if one goes out and comes back twice , the subscribers may actually experience a blackout. you have a series of blackouts because the domestic sectors are experiencing more blackouts than in the previous weeks. you can see that the country is currently under unprecedented heat. especially in tehran, if we actually had the maximum temperature in tehran since last week, then it would increase the pressure a lot, you can see that it is very soft, less than maybe. from the subscribers , it is possible for one and a half hours and 45 minutes for some, so if more equipment is damaged it may even take up to two hours. i will give you an example to serve you and all dear compatriots. assume that our equipment is affected by the heat as i say

. in other words, a bend in the wire happens . a mast or a tower in , for example, the alborz area, and well, these will make the troops arrive, in addition, you have to return the equipment to that state twice, considering how many blackouts we had in the last two weeks , what was the average across the country, that's very little. as i said, as wide as a finger i want to do it, in terms of the number of subscribers, if we want to say that it is less than 2% in the whole country, and this is if, for example , it has been felt more in the so-called last week, and well, just like all its human forces , be ready in these so-called few months. they are and they are doing their best to ensure that no equipment is removed first and then

they can set it up quickly. in tehran , the capacity that we added was approximately 17 transfer posts and the above explanation was added. about 1,280 megawatt amps have been added to tehran's capacity, but the rate of increase in consumption is faster than what we are doing. is this because the new constructions are mainly using air conditioners or cooling devices? i have to say this . you asked a very good question. look at the growth of consumption in previous years. it was also in your report, for example, we have 250 megawatts per year. megawatt to the amount of consumption added this year. more than 600, i.e. 6240 megawatts, have been added to the amount of consumption, which is double what has been conventionally added in the past few years. it has been added once in a year to make it close to the mind for dear compatriots . what is the amount of increase in consumption? there is an electric equivalent

the electricity consumption of fars province means that we assume that a new province like fars was created and we had this amount of electricity consumption that was added, so to speak , about one million new subscribers are added every year , about 1500 megawatts are the major industrial subscribers that add to the electricity consumption. this is about 2,500 megawatts. this 300 megawatts added this year in addition to the normal growth seems to have an effect in two or three areas . it is partly due to the use of air conditioners that we observed. especially in the northern half of the country, in some areas up to 3 times in fact, in the last two or three years, the number of gas coolers has increased, some areas may not even have water coolers or use them less, such as the northwest of the country. because there is no reason to use an air conditioner here, even the weather

is so-called mild most of the time, and maybe there is less need to use it. now this number, which we have studied at least for the year 1402 until this moment, was obtained from qabuz. one million , 200,000 air conditioners have been added. each air conditioner consumes two and a half kilowatts to three kilowatts , which means we have approximately 2,500 to 3,000 megawatts. those who actually have a water cooler may even have one, but the advertisement has caused them to finally use a gas cooler and add it to their consumption, it really increases the pressure on the equipment, but this point is also important. let me tell you that despite all these pressures on the power grids, our colleagues tried to minimize the problems of our dear compatriots and if something happens, they can be solved quickly. i don't want to be reminded of the past . well, they definitely know that well , several times in one day or a very long time

in fact, it has been a week now that the pressure has doubled because of the heat, but i would like to say that we are doing our best to be able to respond quickly, and god willing, we will be able to do so in the few days left until the end of the season. let us follow the summer well, god willing, with a stable network . i would also like to say one thing, if the dear viewers are searching , they will know the countries around the region in terms of electricity supply. and even the growth of consumption is not like ours, which countries like kuwait are considering consider the likes of saudi arabia , consider the likes of turkey, or if you look at european or american countries, you will see that they are in a very heated situation, despite the fact that they are parties in such a way that they may have fewer subscribers. they stop using air conditioners and try to keep the heat in reality and

not spend so-called. i have a special thank you , they are really struggling, they are going through a difficult situation they say, our dear people, after all, the ramin power plant was an example of hundreds of examples that will finally happen. it was taken out of orbit twice , it was brought back into orbit. unfortunately, today i am at your service. one of our colleagues, who in the last two nights, in fact, in the explanation company of qom province , mr. seyyed ahmad hosseinizadeh, who is one of simban, passed away, may god bless him. our dear ones, this was also in order to be able to see that there was a burnt fuse in a place that had been turned off. in fact , while observing the safety issues, they actually suffer from an accident getting electrocuted and losing their lives

here , i offer my condolences to all his dear family, his relatives and also the big family of the electrical industry. we will continue our conversation . the electricity consumption of air conditioners in iran is equivalent to the total electricity consumption of egypt. the consumption of air conditioners in the country has reached more than 35 thousand megawatts, which is a very large number, almost equivalent to the consumption of large countries like egypt, their total electricity consumption is about 32,300 megawatts. the consumption of our coolers is also from these countries there are more gas coolers, which are only suitable for humid and hot climates due to air conditioning, according to people's consumption habits. unfortunately, with false advertising , it is moving towards consumer goods. for example, in the

azerbaijan region, the statistics that actually exist are that the amount of air conditioners has doubled since last year. air conditioners are not necessary at all in azerbaijan, in tehran, in non-hot areas. deer is not considered a good tool at all in terms of both energy and health. one of the reasons for using air conditioners is the new lifestyle, the main consequence of which is the increase in electricity consumption, pressure on the national network. electricity is consumed during the peak period and ultimately increases the cost of the household electricity bill. without having a study on this section and doing specialized work. well , they use air conditioners with very low efficiency and high consumption, which are faced with

frequent fuse burns to get through the summer and... how to manage electricity consumption, how can you save , use more energy-efficient lamps, use less air conditioners i use it as a water cooler. during the peak hours , be sure to turn down the air conditioner, as it says on the tv, i am a customer who comes , we advise him to use a polymer cooler here. because its electricity consumption is almost a quarter of that of a metal cooler, mozaffari of sada and sima news agency, well , we saw and heard mrs. mozaffari's report together, mr. rajab mashhaddi, now the constructions are mainly about the fact that i don't use water coolers, now obviously we are talking about we are talking about tehran and cities like tehran, because now the amount of canalization can even take up a meter of space, and because of the high price of land, they ignore laws or, i hope, you have an understanding with the engineering system to build a place. and the new instruments included these, yes, see before to answer this question, first of all

, i invite all my dear compatriots who are in the regions. normal in terms of climate, almost 80% of the country is in this condition, and these are houses that have been built and have water coolers, they are not looking for quasi-quasi in any way, because our model in normal areas is 300 kilowatt hours per month, and if the consumption if their electricity consumption is higher than the model, even if they have a gas air conditioner, this will happen . in this case, the electricity consumption will increase gradually, and the electricity tariff will increase gradually, and they will have to pay a heavy amount. in any case, if we have provided electricity in one place, we designed a transformer to supply electricity to this area and this alley, for example, if all the people or a part of it, for example if people decide to use air conditioners , then the situation will be such that the transformer will not be responsive and we will have to

increase the entire facility there. let's give capacity , and this is the same time and capacity, that later we have to build a power plant to supply that electricity , so follow one thing for the new ones. we had a meeting with the engineering system organization regarding both the use of air conditioners and the buildings being able to provide part of their own energy, in other words, to use the space of the roofs and the energy of the sun. from this section , those who are out of we had a so-called meeting and signed a memorandum of understanding, so that, god willing , this will come in the normal approvals of the engineering system organization, and somehow we will be able to

provide part of the energy for the buildings through this power plant. let's see what it is for. you see, in any case , we are forced not to advertise it in the national media , in other media, for regions that are moderate , but in any case, because some people are looking for profit in this area, they advertise a lot , especially these provinces that are western and north-west and others are in some way the use of these devices is very popular and in some way it is replacing water coolers, which is dangerous, anyway, for us , the engineering system organization. we had good talks in this area, god willing , there are technical discussions anyway, and in terms of the fact that they are asking from the land market. make the most of it and water cooler channels usually occupy more space than gas coolers. this is under investigation. we hope that it will be successful and the process of using gas coolers in the country will be stopped anyway, because no

matter how much try as we might, we really cannot increase consumption this fast. let's answer this summer, which definitely won't come again. it definitely won't come . there's also a second issue that i'm talking about, what year do i think it will come together? now that we are using it, at least for its energy category, a ministry, more, a part of it that is not really in the hands of the ministry of energy, and other institutions should help . actually, the issue of import is air conditioners , which may not have the desired energy category, a or plus. ok, these have a very high electricity consumption, these so-called imported coolers , the information we have is not much, in fact , my information is not official, but 300,000 units are smuggled into the country every year, and these are usually the so-called energy-efficient grades. they have the bottom, which consumes one and a half times as much electricity

sometimes up to twice as many imports, do you have total statistics , which was a number that was actually reviewed somewhere , which is about 300,000 devices, we also have
