Renewable Energies in Iran before Economic Sanctions
During this period, the Ministry of Energy has received many references as a trustee of the Renewable Energy and Energy Efficiency Company as a guarantee of the purchase of electricity. Various companies and institutions from different parts of the country and companies from Europe and Asia have been seeking a license to build a renewable energy plant in Iran, especially since the sanctions have been issued to this organization, of which the number of licenses issued was about 87 contracts with a capacity of almost 1263 megawatts has been secured through a government-guaranteed power-purchase mechanism, of which 17 have been awarded contracts with a capacity of approximately 90 megawatts in operation. Given that the Iranian deserts cover a quarter of the area, the potential for solar energy production in Iran is high. If only one percent of these areas are covered by photovoltaic systems, the energy generated is five times more than the annual electricity consumption in Iran.Of course, with the completion of the zero phase of the country's wind atlas, the estimated amount of wind energy recovered by the country is estimated at 40,000 megawatts. Iran has the potential to generate electricity from hydropower sources between 23,000 and 42,000 megawatts, which is why our country has invested heavily in the development of this sector. The center of the earth is a huge source of thermal energy that leads to various forms, including volcanic eruptions and hot water. In 2007, twenty-four countries have used this massive source of energy to generate electricity by installing geothermal power plants, with a total installed capacity of 9700 megawatts. Hydrogen is one of the elements that is abundant in the surface of the earth, but not in pure form, but it must be found by methods. Different from other elements. Compared to other fuels, this material can be converted to higher energies and very clean combustion. In the sea, the energy of waves, tides and temperature difference or salt concentration at different depths can be used to generate electricity. The biomass includes all substances in nature that have been in the past, living organisms, live organisms, or waste, waste or waste products. There are high potentialities for developing renewable energy in Iran, which shows the need for attention to this sector, although good measures have been taken so far, but it is expected that the Renewable Development Program will be in a tighter routine
