Tavanir Distribution Coordination Deputy said: "The peak of the country's electricity consumption occurs every year between July 1 and August 6; Accordingly, it is necessary for the subscribers to put this period of optimal consumption on the agenda in the peak hours (13 to 17) and transfer the use of high-consumption devices such as washing machines, irons and 2 to low-consumption hours.

Tavanir Distribution Coordination Deputy added: "In the field of using cooling systems, which occupy a large part of the peak of electricity consumption, we can reduce the temperature of gas coolers by adjusting the temperature to 24 or using remote sensors." Let's be.

Rakhshani-Mehr emphasized that we should change our consumption behavior during peak hours, and said: the peak of electricity consumption in the country occurs every year between the first of July and the fifteenth of August; Accordingly, it is necessary for the subscribers to put this period of optimal consumption on the agenda in the peak hours (13 to 17) and transfer the use of high-consumption devices such as washing machines, irons and 2 to low-consumption hours.

He continued: "Out of 60,000 megawatts of peak electricity consumption in the country, about four to five thousand megawatts of this figure is needed only for 10 to 20 days of the year, between 13 and 17 hours, which is needed to provide the required energy for this sector." Significant investment must be made each year.
