Tehran, March 2025 – To foster international collaboration and provide transparent data to global stakeholders, the Secretariat of the IEIEA has published a comprehensive English analysis of the Iranian fiscal year 1403 (2024-2025).
A Year of Paradigm Shifts The report characterizes 1403 as a year defined by "extreme resilience". The national grid successfully navigated a complex "dual-crisis scenario": a record-breaking summer "Heat Dome" that pushed demand past 79,000 MW, and a severe winter "Gas Cliff" that tested fuel supply chains.
Key Highlights of the Report:
Generation Efficiency: Despite external pressures, the industry successfully upgraded Open Cycle plants to Combined Cycle, raising average efficiency from ~32% to over 48%.
Maintenance Mastery: A massive overhaul program covering 110,000 MW was executed, with domestic companies reversing-engineering critical hot-gas path components to maintain 98% plant availability.
Market Reform: The report details the success of the "Green Board" on the Iran Energy Exchange (IRENEX), where industrial demand for renewable energy drove trading volumes to record highs, establishing a real price discovery mechanism.
Outlook for 1404: The Year of Efficiency Looking ahead, the report outlines the IEIEA's strategic roadmap for the new year, designated as "The Year of Efficiency". The focus will shift towards:
Grid Modernization to reduce technical losses.
Renewable Expansion, specifically targeting wind energy in eastern corridors.
Cultural Shift from energy subsidies to energy productivity.
