According to TPPH’s public relations, Samangan combined cycle power
station which will have a gas unit and a steam unit is under construction in

It
is estimated that by exploiting the second unit of this power station in
September 2016 and its steam unit with 160 megawatts capacity in August 2017,
the total amount of electricity generated in this power station will reach 492
megawatts.
The electricity
distributer post of the power station to the national electricity network is
230 kilovolts which is constructed by power station’s investing companies and
has joined the network since last June.
The current outcome of
the power station is 49/5% and in order to provide the power stations fuel in
the gas shortage periods, 2 storages with 20,000 cube meters’ gasoline reserve
are designed and built that can provide the power station’s fuel for a period
of 45 days.

of Samangan power station is done by providing equipment chiefly provided from
domestic technologies by MAPNA Company and Qods Niroos Company was the advisor
