"Iran is launching two tenders for the construction of two nuclear power stations of between 1,000 and 1,600 megawatts capacity in Bushehr," the director of production of nuclear energy, Ahmad Fayaz Bakhsh, told reporters. Bushehr is the location of Iran’s first nuclear power plant which is being built by a Russian contractor. However its completion, due for this year, has been held up by a string of delays amid mutual acrimony.
