The ministry said a 500-megawatt plant would be built in each of the southern provinces of Basra and Najaf, and a 250-megawatt plant in the western province of Anbar.

“The companies will present their offers in the coming few weeks to supply, design and implement these plants,” it said.

The ministry did not give a value for the projects.
