The minister, Dr. Ayham al-Samarie, heads the Ministry of Electricity, which is responsible for Iraq's electric infrastructure.

Iraqi Electricity is extremely flawed, in many ways. First of all there are power cuts, electricity in the city of Kirkuk the electricity could be the best throughout all of Iraq, electricity in Kirkuk comes for 3-4 hours and on some days even 5, but after that it will cut for 4 or 5 hours, electricity in Baghdad could be the worst throughout Iraq, coming only 1 hour during daylight and 1 hour at sunset. Fortunately there a privately owned generators in Iraq, every neighbourhood has 1 or 2, providing up to 15 Amps for every home, but every amp costs, some places it could cost 5000 Dinars (around 4 dollars American) or up to 8000 Dinars per Amp, so if say the normal household bought 4 amps that could be 32 000 Dinars everymonth for something that should not even be. Iraqi electricity should have been fixed over 2 years ago after the fall of Saddam.
