This station is expected to increase energy exchange between Azerbaijan and Iran.
As APA reports, Iranian national energy department Tavanir's experts are working on the technical and economic assessment of the project.
Azerbaijan is capable of transfer much more electricity to Iran at present. But, Iran is not able to receive so much energy.
At present 500-550 thousand kw/h of electricity are being exchanged daily between Astara (Azerbaijan) and Astara (Iran). Iran is capable of transferring 200 mv/h of energy to Nakhchivan AR blockaded by Armenia and 400 mw/h to Azerbaijan in winter.
