TEHRAN (NIPNA) – Iran has granted final environmental approval for the construction of a 44-megawatt self-sufficient combined cycle power plant at the Dehdasht Petrochemical Complex, marking a key step toward securing sustainable energy and advancing regional economic development.

 

Mohammad Shokri, CEO of Dehdasht Petrochemical Industries Company, announced the approval and praised the cooperation of the Department of Environment of Kohgiluyeh and Boyer-Ahmad Province. The permit was issued following a technical assessment meeting held by the provincial environmental committee, which included field inspections and expert evaluations.

“The new power plant will not only ensure a stable electricity supply for the Dehdasht complex but also enhance power reliability across the provincial grid,” Shokri said.

As Vice Chairman of the Board, Shokri emphasized that the project will be developed in collaboration with Iran’s MAPNA Group and will leverage domestic capabilities and modern technologies. The facility is expected to generate both direct and indirect employment opportunities in the region.

Shokri added that the project is being implemented in coordination with local authorities and regulatory bodies, and in full compliance with environmental standards. “This is a strategic step in strengthening the energy infrastructure in southern Iran and aligning with the principles of sustainable development,” he said.
