About The Iran Energy Project
The Iran Energy Project is a project of the Foundation for Defense of Democracies (FDD).
The project (www.Iranenergyproject.org ) provides research and analysis that identies Irans energy vulnerabilities as part of a comprehensive sanctions strategy to end the Iranian regimes nuclear weaponsprogram, support for terrorism, and human rights abuses. The project also analyzes the prominent role of the
Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps in Irans energy industry.
Companies still doing business with Iran risk being sanctioned by the United States, the European Union,Canada, Australia, and other countries. The Iran Energy Project tracks these companies using available opensources and publishes its ndings on a website that is free to the public. The website also provides breakingnews, critical analysis, and relevant legislation.
In the past year, many of Iran's major energy partners have ended their business ties with Iran. To assistgovernment ofcials with effective sanctions enforcement, the Iran Energy Project provides updates oncompanies that remain in the Iranian energy sector, as well as those that resume their business ties.
