Currently, Iraq's power generation output averages less than 6,000 MW, while the demand is typically more than 10,000 MW.[1] For 2006, the average peak electricity supply was 4,280 MW exceeding demand averaged 8,180 MW by about 3,950 MW. According to U.S. agency officials, demand for electricity has been stimulated by a growing economy and a surge in consumer purchases of appliances and electronics. In addition, electricity is subsidized in Iraq, which leads to increased demand. If the Ministry of Electricity's master plan for 2006 to 2015 to rehabilitate and expand the national grid is implemented, the ministry estimates that Iraq will be able to meet its projected demand for electricity in 2009 [2] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electricity_in_Iraq
