Iran Faces Unprecedented Power Outages: A Crisis Deepens Amid Summer Heat

Images from the reference sources
Iran is grappling with a severe electricity crisis this summer, marked by extensive power outages affecting households and industries alike. With rising temperatures and declining investments in the energy sector, the situation poses significant challenges for the nation.


In a shocking paradox, the electricity crisis is worsening this summer in Iran, an energy exporter, invading the household sector after inflicting heavy losses on the industrial sectors and causing work to be suspended in a number of provinces, coinciding with the rise in temperatures.

After the recovery of the energy sector in Iran - following the few years following the Iran-Iraq War (1980-1988) - the new generations in this oil and gas exporting country have not known power outages in the household sector, but the problem has worsened this year after it began to appear in recent years.
