The Iranian Vice President, Head of the Atomic Energy Organization of Iran, Mohammad Eslami, spoke about the achievements of the nuclear industry in the country and confirmed the existence of Iranian nuclear goods and services that break the monopoly in the global market. Eslami noted that 20% of the country's electricity will be produced from nuclear power plants by the year 2041.
The Iranian official stated, "Iran's capabilities in nuclear technology have managed to overcome the monopoly in this sector, such that our services and products are present in global markets, and we are now exporting some of our products to several countries."
He added, "Given our production capacities and capabilities, we can export radioactive pharmaceutical products to all parts of the world, even though the half-life of radioactive pharmaceutical products is short. In this process, it is very important to have a flight network that can deliver the drugs on time."
He continued, "One of the five reputable companies in the world in the field of producing radioactive pharmaceuticals is 'Pars Isotope,' which operates in Iran. With the opening of a new center before the end of the year or no later than a year from today, we will increase the production of radioactive pharmaceuticals by 5 to 7 times."
He also pointed out that "Iran is currently exporting the heavy water produced in Iran and its derivatives abroad, and we decide how to sell these products, which is a key and strategic point."
