| 'Iran to be nuclear equipment exporter' |
| 2011-10-05 |
| Head of Iran's Atomic Energy Organization Fereydoon Abbasi says Iran will become one of the world's major exporters of nuclear equipment in the near future. The country has reached self-sufficiency and will become one of the world's main exporters of nuclear equipment in the near future, Abbasi told reporters on Tuesday, IRNA reported. He said that Iran has turned pressures and sanctions into opportunities, adding that the country's nuclear achievements were indebted to 15 years of work and efforts by Iranian scientists. Abbasi said that the launch of Iran's Bushehr nuclear power plant, the launch of Arak research reactor, fuel production at Isfahan's nuclear site as well as uranium enrichment were among the country's nuclear achievements. He said that the development of nuclear technology would lead to the development of scientific industries and expressed hope that nuclear technology would be used to serve public welfare in the country. Iran officially launched the Bushehr nuclear power plant on September 12. The plant had been connected to the national power grid on September 3, supplying 60 megawatts of its 1,000-megawatt capacity. The Bushehr nuclear power plant will initially generate electricity at 40 percent of its capacity and will reach its full capacity of 1,000 megawatts in about two or three months. |
