The Research Center of the Parliament has warned in its latest report about the state of the country's electricity network that despite a relative increase in production capacity, the electricity imbalance will continue in the summer of 2026, and there is a possibility of power outages, especially during the night.

According to estimates from the Energy, Industry, and Mining Studies Office of this center, in a realistic scenario, the electricity deficit during peak summer consumption will reach about 13,600 megawatts. In this estimate, the simultaneous supply capacity of the network is projected to be around 68,400 megawatts, while the demand is expected to exceed 81,000 megawatts.

Today, the villages of Drykbijar experienced a power outage from 16:45 for about 1 hour and 15 minutes. After the power was cut, I called 121, and they said the 2-hour outage is a consumption control measure that started this morning from Rasht and reached the counties in the afternoon.
