LONDON, January 17 (IranMania) - Iran says it needs 10 nuclear power 
plants to keep up with electricity demand, marking a new step in an 
international row over its uranium enrichment program, UPI reported.

Gholam Hossein Elham, a spokesman for the Iranian government, said 
Monday the country will need more than the 3,000 centrifuges used to 
produce the nuclear fuel.

Iran needs an electricity supply of 10,000 megawatts by nuclear energy, 
and in order to supply that, we need 10 nuclear plants, Elham said. 
Elham said all of Tehran's nuclear work will be done with International 
Atomic Energy Agency supervision, the state-run Fars News Agency reports.

Iran faces sanctions by the UN Security Council over its decision to 
continue enriching uranium, a process to make both nuclear fuel and 
nuclear weapons, depending on the extent of the enrichment.

Tehran says it only wants to make nuclear energy and claims the 
sovereign right to do so as a signatory of the nuclear non-proliferation 
treaty.

A Russian company is building a nuclear reactor in Bushehr, Iran, which 
would be Iran's first.
