    Economy News _ Baghdad
    On Monday, the Ministry of Electricity revealed its need for 45 million cubic meters of Iranian gas to generate power plants, while confirming its readiness for the upcoming summer season.
    Ministry spokesman Ahmed Moussa said, in a press interview, that "there are efforts from the Ministry of Electricity in the production, transmission and distribution sector by introducing new units of work and strategic lines linking the governorates, and there are transformational stations that will enter service during the coming period."
    Mousa added, "There are also great efforts in the distribution sector through the rehabilitation of networks and the introduction and development of new feeders, as well as the installation of mobile stations in some pregnancy centers."
    He continued, "The Ministry of Electricity pledges to citizens that it will provide the summer of 2022 better than the summer of 2021," noting that "the ministry's plan needs financial liquidity in the absence of the state's general budget."
    He pointed out that "the Ministry of Electricity needs financial liquidity in isolation from the exchange of 12/1, and the minister requested this from the Prime Minister, and the latter instructed the Ministry of Finance to provide financial liquidity, whether through advances or loans, until the approval of the general budget law for the current year."
    Regarding the Iranian gas releases to Iraq, Moussa noted that “the Ministry of Electricity is seeking, with the Iranian side, to abide by the clauses of the contract and release gas according to the concluded contract, as it was declining at 8 million cubic meters, but after continuous meetings between the ministry and the Iranian side, the releases rose to 20 million cubic metres.
    A spokesman for the Ministry of Electricity concluded by saying that "the ministry needs 45 million cubic meters of gas, especially, with the peak load period in the summer, and therefore there will be an urgent need for imported and local gas to generate electric power."
    And the Ministry of Electricity confirmed, last week, that the Qatari gas that was discussed, which includes "supplying one and a half million tons of gas" to support the electricity system, is a complement and not a substitute for Iranian gas that is imported to operate power plants.
    Iraq is holding talks with Gulf countries, led by Saudi Arabia, to import electricity from them by linking its organization with the Gulf system, after it had depended on Iran alone during the past years by importing 1200 megawatts as well as gas fuel to feed local electric power stations.
    Iraq also intends to import electricity from Jordan and Turkey, in an effort from Baghdad to fill the shortage until building power stations that are able to meet local consumption.
    Iraq has been suffering from a chronic electricity shortage crisis for decades as a result of the siege and successive wars. For many years, residents have protested against frequent power cuts, especially in the summer, when temperatures sometimes reach 50 degrees Celsius.
