According to the public relations office of
Negine Makran Petrochemical Development Company, the plant has operated for a
total of 117 days and is a key component of the third petrochemical hub’s
utility infrastructure in southeastern Iran.
“The 183-MW Makran plant was designed to provide
stable power to the industrial park while supporting the country’s electricity
grid, particularly in Sistan and Baluchestan province,” the company’s CEO said.
“It serves a dual role as a national infrastructure asset, both backing
industrial operations and meeting public electricity needs.”
The plant complements other utility facilities in
the park, including a 230-kilovolt substation, electricity and gas transmission
networks, and water supply systems, enabling the establishment and operation of
large petrochemical units in the region.
The CEO added that the project delivers direct
benefits to local communities by improving electricity reliability, creating
jobs, and strengthening regional development infrastructure.
Negine Makran described the power plant as more
than an industrial facility; it is a strategic element of a balanced regional
development plan, supporting the emergence of a new industrial hub in
southeastern Iran.
