Supplying and managing liquid fuel reserves for power plants are a key responsibility of the Oil Ministry as part of the national energy supply chain. Amid rising demand and supply challenges, the ministry's efforts to expand storage capacity, optimize resources, and implement sustainable policies have been crucial in maintaining energy stability.

Latest figures show that over 2 billion liters of diesel were delivered to power plants from March 21 to May 21—a 42% increase (600 million liters) compared to the 1.4 billion liters supplied in the same period last year.

Additionally, about 1.8 billion liters of mazut were delivered in the same two-month period, up 52% (600 million liters) from 1.2 billion liters last year.

46% rise in total liquid fuel deliveries 

In total, more than 3.8 billion liters of liquid fuel (diesel and mazut) were delivered to power plants from March 21 to May 21—a 46% increase (1.2 billion liters) from the 2.6 billion liters supplied in the same period last year.

Meanwhile, power plants stored over 1.5 billion liters of diesel during this period, an 85% jump (700 million liters) from 816 million liters last year. Mazut reserves also rose to 1.4 billion liters by late May, up 36% (400 million liters) from 1.022 billion liters in the same period last year.

Combined diesel and mazut reserves reached nearly 3 billion liters by late May 2025—a 58% increase (1.1 billion liters) from 1.838 billion liters in late May 2024.
