Iran-Daily Life In Iran’s First Ever Nuclear Seaport City Of Bushehr
Iranian youths are standing together outside an outdoor cafe 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. The Bushehr nuclear power plant, aimed at providing electricity and diversifying energy resources, began construction in 1975 after Iran signed a contract with the German company Siemens. However, the Islamic Revolution in 1979 halted the construction, and Germany ceased work due to political sanctions. After a long delay, Iran reached an agreement with Russia in 2004 to complete the project. The Bushehr nuclear power plant, after 27 years from the start of its construction, became fully operational and connected to the national electricity grid in 2011, marking it as Iran's first and only active nuclear power plant.
