Neka Power Plant
The asset is consistently identified as Shahid Salimi Combined Cycle Power Plant in Neka. A historical reference to Behshahr Power Plant is distinguished as a past identity.
Strategic and market-access role
Neka Power Plant matters in the Hormuz Graph because it anchors a major northern power-supply context for Mazandaran, where demand is shaped by urban services, agriculture, food processing, tourism, Caspian ports, and seasonal load pressure. Its location near Neka’s coastal energy infrastructure gives it a different profile from inland plants: it links northern grid resilience, industrial and household demand, fuel and maintenance exposure, and environmental constraints in a province where electricity reliability affects both production and service-sector performance.
