Iran-Daily Life In Iran’s First Ever Nuclear Seaport City Of Bushehr

A coastal street and a wharf are seen in Bushehr, Iran's first nuclear seaport city, located in Bushehr province on the northern coast of the Persian Gulf, 1090km (677 miles) south of Tehran, on April 28, 2024. Initially contracted with the German company Siemens in 1975 to provide electricity and diversify energy resources, the construction of the Bushehr nuclear power plant was interrupted by the Islamic Revolution in 1979. Subsequent political sanctions led Germany to cease its involvement. After considerable delays, Iran reached an agreement with Russia in 2004 to complete the project. The Bushehr nuclear power plant, after 27 years since the start of its construction, was fully operational and connected to the national electricity grid in 2011, marking it as Iran's first and only active nuclear power plant.
