Atomic Energy Organization of Iran (AEOI) Deputy Head Ali Asqar Zare’an was quoted by Fars News Agency as saying, "The second phase of the 1,000-megawatt Bushehr nuclear power plant and the port city’s water sweetening facility will be inaugurated next (Iranian) year."
The Bushehr power plant is a 1000MWe pressurized water reactor (PWR) initiated in 1975 through a bilateral agreement with Germany, but was completed by Russia as part of an agreement signed with Tehran in 1995, after the work was halted by the 1979 Islamic Revolution.
The plant reached its full capacity by August 2012, and started producing power for the power grid in September 2013, under supervision of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), Press TV reports.
