Accelerating the Utilization of Capacities
Hashemi stated: "The utilization of some capacities that were supposed to be activated over a longer period under normal conditions has been accelerated due to the special conditions of war, and these capacities have been made available to the country's energy sector sooner." He also emphasized that good suggestions for managing the energy supply status in the winter season have been proposed, and a supplementary commission meeting will be held for a more detailed review of the topic and to make necessary decisions.
In conclusion, Hashemi noted that the energy supply conditions this year will be tougher than in previous years, and given the forecast of harsher cold this winter, more serious measures must be considered for consumption management and sustainable energy supply. He emphasized the role of the public in energy consumption management and expressed hope that with the planned arrangements, the necessary conditions for successfully passing through the cold season and adequately supplying energy will be provided.
