Iran spreads energy ties throughout Central Asia
BISHKEK - Iran will begin buying electricity this year from Kyrgyzstan as part of a bid to build ties in former Soviet Central Asia, now largely under Russian control, a top Iranian official said here yesterday.
Delivery of a first consignment of 1,000 megawatts via Tajikistan and Afghanistan could begin by the end of this year, Iranian Vice President Mohammad Reza Aref said.
“The countries through which we plan to organise the electricity transit are providing maximum cooperation,” he told reporters.
The deal would be part of a recent increase in energy-sector cooperation between Iran and its Central Asian neighbours to the north aimed at overcoming energy shortfalls in northeastern Iran.
Teheran has sought to expand its influence in its former Soviet neighbours in recent years.
