As gas consumption rises during the winter season, the delivery of this volume of gas plays a critical role in maintaining the stability of the electricity grid.

Forecasts predict further temperature drops in the coming days, prompting officials to call on the public to manage their energy consumption to support the gas and electricity networks.

In a recent statement, Iran’s Power Generation, Transmission, and Distribution Company (Tavanir) thanked citizens for their cooperation in optimizing energy use.

The company advised setting indoor temperatures between 18 and 21 degrees Celsius, turning off unnecessary lights, and minimizing the use of high-consumption electrical appliances to ensure uninterrupted power supply for all customers.

Gov’t calls for energy conservation 

Following the cold snap and predictions of further temperature declines, President Masoud Pezeshkian, Oil Minister Mohsen Paknejad, and other officials urged the public to participate in the "2 Degrees Less" campaign. Through video and written messages, they emphasized the importance of optimal energy use and cooperation in securing winter fuel supplies.

The campaign aims to reduce energy consumption by encouraging households and businesses to lower their thermostats by 2 degrees, a measure expected to alleviate pressure on the national gas and electricity infrastructure.

Officials reiterated that public cooperation is essential to ensure the stability of energy networks during the peak winter season.
