Power Plant Construction
The country’s first 5 MW plant built on domestic capacity, at IDEM’s works, on generators IDEM builds.
The day industry’s power was limited
On 30 June 2024, the day power limits on industry began, IDEM’s 5 MW plant went on line. Since then, on days of limited supply, the factory runs part of the day on its own power alone .
Opening
In the presence of the late Governor of East Azerbaijan, Dr Malek Rahmati, and IDEM’s managing director.

From the engine to the line
The plant’s power path, drawn the way its own switchboards draw it: each part lights up as the current reaches it.
An IDEM diesel engine
At the heart of every unit is a diesel engine IDEM makes in Tabriz.
Diesel generator
The generator is built onto an IDEM engine, and each unit’s panel controls and protects it.
Transformer
Above every unit sits its own transformer, carrying its power on to the switchboards.
Switchboards
The output of every unit is gathered on the busbar of the switchboards at the end of the hall.

IDEM’s production lines
On days of limited supply, the factory runs for part of the day on this plant alone.
The city network
At peak hours the factory leans less on the national grid, and the city network’s load eases.

We build the same plant for your site
IDEM has built, tested and commissioned an industrial power plant on its own factory site, and it makes the engine too.
Generators on IDEM engines
Customisable, simple to operate, efficient and fully protected.
Build, test, commission
Generating units, transformers and switchgear, through to the day the plant goes on line.
Independent power for industry
Steady supply for production lines, and backup at peak demand.
