Iran’s Energy Crisis and Tehran’s Strategic Turn to Russia & China
How blackouts and sanctions are forcing Iran into a risky geopolitical energy pivot

Overview

• After a summer of crippling heat, widespread blackouts, and renewed sanctions, Iran is entering a deep energy crisis.

• Tehran is relying more heavily on Russia and China to stabilize its power sector: building nuclear reactors with Moscow, importing solar and storage technology from Beijing.

• But these projects face serious obstacles—sanctions, funding risks, and geopolitical leverage—and may not meaningfully resolve Iran’s immediate shortages.

• As winter approaches, Iran’s energy future remains precarious: rich in ambition, weak in delivery.

Key Developments

• Domestic Power Crisis Worsens
  Scheduled rolling blackouts have returned amid intense summer heat. 
  Decades of underinvestment, reliance on inefficient gas plants, and a fragmented grid have left Iran ill-equipped to meet peak demand. 

• Russia Steps In with Nuclear Ambitions
  In September 2025, Russia and Iran signed a $25 billion deal to build four Generation III reactors in Hormozgan Province, aiming for up to 5 GW of capacity. 
  This is part of a broader strategy: Tehran hopes to reach 20 GW of nuclear capacity by 2040, including several small modular reactors (SMRs). 

• But the deal comes with risk: Moscow gains deep strategic leverage, and sanctions may complicate delivery. Modern Diplomacy

• China’s Role in Renewables
  Under its long-term cooperation deal with China, Iran is fast-tracking solar and battery storage projects. 
  Chinese firms such as SUNROVER and LDK are leading major PV contracts; China is also helping ship solar panels via land routes. 
  However, currency instability, banking isolation, and limited skilled labor make scaling difficult. 

• Trilateral Diplomacy
  In early 2025, Iran, Russia, and China met in Beijing to coordinate on nuclear strategy and counter Western sanctions. 
  China has publicly defended Iran’s right to “peaceful nuclear energy” in this context. 

• Escalation Amid Sanctions
  The UN Security Council rejected a Russia–China resolution to delay the re-imposition of UN sanctions on Iran, complicating Tehran’s access to key energy technologies. 
  Meanwhile, Iran faces growing domestic discontent: protests over energy shortages have been linked to rising economic and social strain. 

Why It Matters

Iran’s pivot to Russia and China in the energy sphere is more than a technical fix—it’s a political and strategic recalibration. By aligning with Moscow for nuclear power and Beijing for renewables, Tehran is signaling both defiance toward the West and a long-term bet on Eastern alliances. But the immediate utility of these projects is limited: they may take years to produce meaningful relief, especially given worsening sanctions and potential security risks.

Domestically, the energy crisis underscores Iran’s structural fragility: despite its vast oil and gas reserves, the country struggles to maintain a stable, efficient domestic power system. Internationally, the deals deepen Tehran’s dependence on authoritarian partners, potentially limiting its future autonomy.

Implications for the Global Reset

Pillar: Geopolitical Realignment
Iran’s energy turn strengthens its strategic alignment with Russia and China, tightening a geopolitical triangle that challenges Western influence in the Middle East. This trio could become a more cohesive counterweight in energy, defense, and economic diplomacy.

Pillar: Emerging Energy Paradigms
By pursuing nuclear and renewable energy in tandem, Iran is modeling a future in which energy security is tied to geopolitical non-alignment—not just market access. If successful, this could reshape regional infrastructure planning and investment flows.

This is not just politics — it’s global finance restructuring before our eyes.

What Happens If BRICS Launches Their Currency Tonight?

Hypothetical shock-scenario: a new BRICS currency and the implications for the U.S. dollar, capital flows, and global power.

Overview

• A surprise overnight BRICS currency announcement would trigger an immediate re-ordering of the global financial architecture.

• Dollar dominance would face its sharpest test in decades as developing nations consider alternatives.

• Three major U.S. sectors would feel the shock first:
  (1) global trade & dollar dependency, (2) capital flows & exchange rates, (3) geopolitical leverage & sanction power.

• While this scenario is purely hypothetical, it reflects an already-advancing trend: rapid de-dollarisation and multipolar financial alignment.

Key Developments

• Reduced Dependency on the Dollar
  A BRICS currency—if launched suddenly—would accelerate global trade settlement outside the dollar, reducing exposure to U.S. monetary policy and the risks tied to sanctions.

• Capital Flows & Exchange-Rate Dynamics
  Investors would rapidly readjust portfolios, FX markets would swing, and the dollar’s reserve-currency premium would come under pressure.

• Geopolitical Shift & Economic Leverage
  A unified BRICS currency would signal a major shift in global power, providing emerging economies with stronger negotiating power and reducing Western influence.

• Structural & Practical Obstacles
  Despite growing momentum, real barriers remain: diverging BRICS member interests, convertibility issues, lack of unified monetary governance, and the world’s deep dependence on existing dollar infrastructure.

Why It Matters

Even if no currency launches tonight, the idea alone signals how fragile the current dollar-centric system has become. The world is already moving toward a more multipolar economic order. The BRICS currency narrative intensifies discussions about reserve diversification, trade realignment, sanction-resistant economies, and the future of global finance.

Implications for the Global Reset

Pillar: Monetary System Disruption
A BRICS currency would challenge the Bretton Woods-era dollar order, accelerating de-dollarisation and reshaping global reserve structures.

Pillar: Economic Sovereignty & Global Governance
Emerging economies seeking alternatives to Western-dominated systems highlight a broader restructuring of global governance and the shift toward multipolar finance.

This is not just politics — it’s global finance restructuring before our eyes.
