Solar power to supply half of industrial parks’ electricity
As summer heat strains Iran’s power grid, the country’s industrial parks are embracing a bold pivot. Solar energy is set to provide half of their electricity needs by next year. With production units long hampered by energy shortages and outages, new policies and incentives are driving investment in solar farms, rooftop installations, and smart energy infrastructure. Backed by public-private partnerships and strategic planning, the initiative marks a turning point in how Iranian industry tackles its energy challenges. Can solar power become the backbone of a more resilient and productive manufacturing sector? Iran Daily takes a closer look at the challenges, the opportunities, and what is at stake for the future of Iran’s energy security.
