Iran's Vice-President Mohammad Mokhber announced a policy to build PV power plants to generate 15GW of electricity, pending approval from the economic council. This initiative is part of Iran's broader effort to reduce dependence on fossil fuels and decentralize its energy infrastructure.
Iranian First Vice-President Mohammad Mokhber announced that the nation has established a comprehensive plan for the construction of solar photovoltaic (PV) power plants, which will generate 15GW of electricity. The plan will now seek approval from the economic council and require $8.3bn of private sector investment in three phases.
"Iran aims to build 15GW of solar capacity" was originally created and published by Energy Monitor, a GlobalData owned brand. The information on this site has been included in good faith for general informational purposes only.
Mokhber also highlighted the issue of preserving the environment, saying the country should move toward the development of renewable energy to meet its needs. An 1800MW solar panel production line is going to be inaugurated in Iran in the near future, an energy expert told IRNA on Saturday.
The Adams Administration has allocated $2 million to fund the program with the goal of providing over 400 new certified e-bikes and spare batteries through trade-ins in 2025. The trade-in program was established in response to Local Law 131 of 2023 sponsored by Council Member Keith Powers.
“Today, the City Council took a decisive step by establishing a first-in-the-nation battery trade-in program,” said Majority Leader Keith Powers. “It provides a clear, immediate pathway to get thousands of unsafe batteries out of our homes and off our streets.
Our first-in-the-nation e-bike trade-in program continues our safety work by allowing delivery workers to exchange unsafe vehicles for high quality e-bikes with certified batteries. This $2 million program is a wise investment to take dangerous mobility devices off our streets, just as we do for firearms.
The program offers trade-ins of both e-micromobility devices and lithium-ion batteries to help ensure that unsafe batteries and devices are fully removed from New York City streets, and that batteries are compatible with the devices they are powering.
“Today, the Council took decisive action to protect our communities by establishing an unprecedented trade-in program for uncertified lithium-ion batteries to reduce dangerous fires caused by those that don't meet safety standards,” said Speaker Adrienne Adams.
Lead-acid batteries are the most common type accepted for core charge transactions. They are used primarily in vehicles, such as cars, trucks, and motorcycles. According to the Battery Council International (BCI), over 90% of lead-acid batteries are recycled. This high recycling rate makes them a popular choice for core charge policies.
By swapping these illegal devices for UL-certified e-bikes and batteries, the program will reduce fire and crash risks, help participants comply with local and state laws, and encourage workers to utilize cleaner and greener forms of e-mobility for deliveries.
