Work on the Iraqi power station in Iskandariyah mends a broken shaft of a power generation turbine 11 February 2009. Built in the early 1980s, the power Iskandariyah - the largest and most important in Iraq, provides a significant proportion of the total volume of the country's electricity. But many years of neglect under the government of Saddam and US air strikes during the Gulf War in 1991, led to the fact that the plant sometimes works only on half power. The plant burns crude oil, which in Iraq is abundant, to produce energy with little or no respect for any modern environmental standards, and its employees, who number more than 1,000, work at the dirty, oil-soaked floors with a minimum of protective devices.
