Tehran to Increase Energy Cooperation with Kabul

A high-ranking delegation from Iran’s Energy Ministry arrived in Kabul this morning to hold talks with senior Afghan officials on the future of energy ties between the two neighbors.

Headed by Deputy Energy Minister for Electricity Homayoun Haeri, the delegation will hold separate meetings with Afghani energy officials with a focus on finding the ways to facilitate electricity trades between the two countries.

Mohammad Hassan Motavallizadeh, the Head of the government-affiliated Power Generation, Distribution and Transmission Company (Tavanir), is accompanying the deputy minister in this trip.

The largest exporter and importer of electricity in the Middle East, Iran plays a central role in power supply in the region.

Iran is currently supplying Iraq, Afghanistan and Pakistan with electricity, CEO of Tavanir Motavallizadeh said on January 04, adding that the country is poised to double the volume of its power export to neighboring countries.
