Iran-Life And Fun Under The Shadow Of Nuclear Power Plant
An Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) military personnel is standing near a beach on the northern coast of the Persian Gulf in Bushehr, Iran's first nuclear seaport city, located in Bushehr province, 1090km (677 miles) south of Tehran, on April 28, 2024. Iran initially signed a contract with the German company Siemens in 1975 to construct the Bushehr nuclear power plant, aiming to provide electricity and diversify energy resources. The construction was interrupted by the Islamic Revolution in 1979, and Germany ceased its involvement due to political sanctions. After a prolonged delay, Iran reached an agreement with Russia in 2004 to complete the project. The Bushehr nuclear power plant, after 27 years from the start of its construction, became fully operational and was connected to the national electricity grid in 2011, marking it as Iran's first and only active nuclear power plant.
