Ministry of Electricity goes ahead with rehabilitating thermal power plant in Aleppo

National
The Ministry of Electricity is going ahead with rehabilitating the thermal power plant in Aleppo after the arrival of the first basic equipment to it. 
 
Last Friday, the ministry announced that the first shipment of basic equipment needed to rehabilitate the Aleppo Thermal Power Plant had arrived.
 
The equipment included control systems, boiler feed pumps and their oil coolers, in addition to rehabilitating the entire medium tension system in the station and maintaining the fifth generator parts.
 
The arrival of equipment to the Aleppo power station coincides with the arrival of a shipment of equipment to the Rastan power plant project in Lattakia, in the context of the government support provided and in implementation of the Ministry of Electricity’s strategy to rehabilitate power plants damaged by terrorist sabotage.
 
All areas in Syria suffer from a long duration of power outage due to the western sanctions that prevent the country from getting spare parts to repair power stations and due to natural gas shortage, which is caused by the US occupation forces’s looting of Syria’s oil.  
 
Syria’s government is seeking to invest in renewable energy as a possible solution.
 
Since the start of terror war on Syria, many power plants and gas lines have been destroyed or damaged. 
 
In 2019, the Ministry of Electricity estimated the losses of the electricity sector since the beginning of the  Start of the war on Syria  at $ 4 billion, according to RT
