(MENAFN- Trend News Agency) BAKU, Azerbaijan, February 27. The possibility
of integrating the electric systems of Russia, Azerbaijan, and Iran
is being discussed, said Iran's ambassador to Russia, Kazem Jalali,
Trend reports.
Jalali noted that this would enable the countries to share
electricity and benefit from each other's power capacity during
peak demand.
He also said that Iran and Russia are strengthening their
cooperation in the sectors of oil, gas, and electricity, which
would meet the interests of both sides.
At the end of last year, Iran's energy Minister Ali Akbar
Mehrabian made the statement that the most optimal option for
connecting the electricity networks of Iran and Russia is through
Azerbaijan.
Iran says that Russia's peak demand for electricity is in the
winter, while Iran's is in the summer. This means that Iran can
sell electricity to Russia in the winter, when it has surplus
power, and buy electricity from Russia in the summer, when it needs
more power.
