Iraq Plans to Build 500 MW Wind Power Project

Iraq is planning to build its first wind power plant with a generation capacity of 500 megawatts (MW) within a post-war drive to rehabilitate its electricity network and tackle a persistent supply shortage.

The National Investment Commission (NIC) has completed the feasibility study for the wind power project, said NIC’s spokesperson Hanan Jassim.

To date, OPEC’s second largest oil producer has awarded solar power projects to France’s TotalEnergies and other foreign and local companies with a total capacity of 7.5 gigawatts (GW).
