Hassan Mousavi reported that a total of 854 mcm of natural gas were delivered to the national grid that day, with 610 mcm used across the residential, commercial, and industrial sectors.

He added that residential consumption accounted for 71 percent of the total natural gas delivered, representing a 16 percent increase compared to the same day last year.

Following a drop in temperatures and forecasts of further cooling, President Masoud Pezeshkian, Oil Minister Mohsen Paknejad, and a number of officials called on the public to participate in the "2 Degrees Less" campaign with visual and written messages promoting efficient gas usage and securing winter fuel supplies.
