History
editThe company was established in 2001 and is currently one of Iran's largest private investors in reverse osmosis.[1]
Noor Vijeh's RO plant in the city of Qom with a capacity of approximately 3,000 cubic metres (790 thousand US gallons) per day successfully completed its contract in 2006.[2]
As of June 2020, the registered capital of the company according to the Official Gazette stands at nearly 209.3 billion Rials.[3]
The newest plants to start operation are located in the city of Kangan and Bushehr, for which the opening ceremonies in 2016 received widespread media attention.[4][5][6][7]
Business model
editThe preference in NVCo is given to BOO (Build-Own-Operate) and BOT (Build-Operate-Transfer) contracts.[8]
Noor Vijeh's plants are located in Asaluyeh, Bandar Abbas, Bushehr, Kangan, Hendijan, and Chabahar (2 phases).[9][10][11][12][13]
