Location
The map below shows the approximate location of the proposed power station in Zahedan, Sistan & Baluchestan Province, Iran.
Background
In 2012 Iran had signed an MoU with Pakistan to export 1,000 MW of electricity. Iran would build the gas-fired plant as well as transmission lines to deliver the power to Pakistan.[1][2] The deal appears to have been delayed aside from a 2010 feasibility study, and in 2019 a new agreement was announced for Pakistan to import 100 MW.[3]
There have been no updates on the proposal as of July 2021 and the project is assumed to be cancelled.
