| 2014-06-24 |
| [Ynet] Under agreement, Russia will two more 1,000 megawatt plants next to Iran's sole existing nuclear plants in Bushehr. Oil-rich Iran says it wants to operate at least 20 nuclear power plants capable of producing 20,000 megawatts of electricity, as a way of decreasing dependency on its vast oil and gas resources. "It is possible that in addition to the two nuclear power plants, we will also discuss further power plants," Kamalvandi added. The Bushehr nuclear power plant that came online in 2011 uses Russian-provided fuel, and is not of international concern. |
