Rewritten Article:
Provincial Offices Shut Down Due to Heatwave and Power Demand
In response to escalating temperatures and rising electricity demand, the Khuzestan provincial government has announced a temporary closure of administrative offices on Wednesday. The decision, approved by Governor Seyed Mohammad Reza Mowlavizadeh, aims to manage energy imbalances and ensure the stability of the power grid.
Key Services Remain Operational
While government offices will remain closed, essential services—including emergency response units, hospitals, fire departments, and shift-based operations—will continue functioning as usual. Banking and insurance branches will operate based on decisions by the Banking and Insurance Coordination Council.
Balancing Energy Needs
The move comes after requests from electricity distribution and transmission companies, highlighting the strain on resources due to extreme weather conditions. By reducing non-essential power consumption, authorities hope to prevent potential disruptions while prioritizing critical infrastructure.
This proactive measure underscores the government’s commitment to safeguarding public welfare amid challenging environmental conditions.
