Investments in renewable energy projects within the MENA (the Middle East and North Africa) region have also increased lately as a result of focusing on clean energy targets by different countries and a significant drop in the cost of solar power generation [5].Middle Eastern countries such as Iran are known for having an arid climate with vast deserts.
However, solar PV energy utilization was almost zero before 2015 and currently has no significant share in the electricity generation of Iran as well. In recent years, renewable energy sources as a potential solution have attracted much attention among researchers and governments to resolve the increasing energy demand problem and environmental

The annual statics of the I.R. Iran meteorological organization (IRIMO) was used to validate the Energy plus weather data (EPW). In this study, R 2 is equal to 0.8875. To validate the Ladybug PV simulator, a 5.2 kW photovoltaic power station in Mashhad was modeled (Fig. 10) in the Ladybug plugin and compared with real data recorded by the
Iran, a country endowed with abundant solar irradiance and an expanding urban landscape, is positioned to exploit the enormous potential of rooftop solar PV technology . The capital city, Tehran, as the core of Iran''s economic and cultural activities, has experienced unprecedented urban development over the years, resulting in an increased
Iran Photovoltaic (PV) Market Drivers & Restraints The study covers all the major underlying forces that help the market develop and grow and the factors that constrain the growth. The report includes a meticulous analysis of each factor, explaining the relevant, qualitative information with supporting data.
The results obtained from this research highlight the potential for widespread adoption of PV-T systems in Iran, given its abundant solar energy resources and diverse climates. Implementing these systems can contribute to reducing greenhouse gas emissions, improving energy efficiency, and decreasing dependence on traditional energy sources.
Iranian First Vice-President Mohammad Mokhber announced that the nation has established a comprehensive plan for the construction of solar PV power plants, which will generate 15GW of electricity. The plan will now
solar photovoltaic (PV) module prices have fallen 80% in the last decade, while installed capacity has grown from 40 GW to over 600 GW in the same period. These trends are set to continue with new global solar installations of over 140 GW expected in calendar year 2020.
For estimation of solar radiation and PV power plant production modeling in Iran, several studies have been carried out, like [12,13]. Different regions have been ranked in [14] for implementation of solar power projects using hybrid Multi-Criteria Decision Making approach. A limited number of studies, Bakhshi-Jafarabadi et al.

Particularly, Iran enjoys a high potential for solar radiation up to 5.5 kWh/m 2 /day where implementation of solar power plants is completely feasible and affordable , . Due to great access to solar energy, several studies have evaluated the potential of generating electricity from this abundant and clean source of energy.
Iran officially inaugurated the country’s biggest solar power plant on August 27, 2014 in Malard—which is located in Centeral Alborz province (Fig. 15). The peak power of the plant is 190 MW h per year.
Nowadays, solar powerhouses in Iran are mainly PV with the capacity of about 0.1% of whole reproducible capacity of the country which has been raised to be compared with the previous years.
