Abstract
The protective tariff policy, investment and guaranteed purchase of electricity through renewable energy sources are some of the most important tools in Iran for developing electricity production. Here, we measure and compare the marginal cost of electricity production through renewable electricity in Iran, and survey the renewable electricity tariff policy in Iran. To have balanced development in renewable energy resources, researchers have calculated and recommended different tariffs for different technologies, i.e., solar thermal, wind and small hydropower. All our research measurements were performed using COMFAR software.
