Iran:

Iran’s Sole Geothermal Power Project Halted Due to Budget Deficit (The Energy Source)

The only geothermal power plant project in Iran has been halted due to the lack of sufficient funds, the Shana News Agency quoted Soheil Porkhial, an official at Iran's Renewable Energies Organization as saying on Feb. 12.

The managing director of Iran Power Generation Transmission & Distribution Management Company (TAVANIR) had said last month that the first geothermal power plant in the country will launch in the next Iranian year (starting March 21, 2014).
