Khuzestan Announces Proactive Power Management Schedule for August 21st
In a move to ensure national grid stability, the Khuzestan Provincial Electricity Distribution Company has issued a schedule for managed power outages for Thursday, August 21st, 2025. This preemptive measure is a direct response to a significant surge in electricity consumption, which has placed considerable strain on the distribution network.
A Necessary Step for System Integrity
Company officials emphasized that these planned, localized interruptions are a critical tool to prevent widespread and uncontrollable blackouts. By carefully managing load during peak hours, the company aims to safeguard the entire grid from instability, ensuring a reliable power supply for essential services and the majority of consumers.
The periods of highest demand are forecasted to occur between 12:00 to 16:00 and 19:00 to 22:00. Residents are being called upon to participate in a collective effort for national energy conservation. The public is urged to voluntarily reduce consumption by minimizing the use of high-energy appliances such as air conditioners, electric heaters, and washing machines during these critical windows.
Public Cooperation is Key to Stability
Management at the distribution company expressed gratitude for the responsible cooperation shown by both household and industrial subscribers thus far. They reiterated that voluntary conservation during peak demand is the most effective solution to avoid unwanted fluctuations in the power supply.
Detailed information on the specific areas that may be affected and the precise timing of any outages is available through the company’s official communication channels. Citizens are encouraged to stay informed by visiting the official websites:
