A techno-economic and environmental assessment of low-carbon development policies in Iran's thermal power generation sector

Abstract: The power generation sector is increasingly affecting global warming due to its greenhouse gases (GHGs) emissions. Hence, improving the efficiency of thermal power plants is effective action in mitigating national and global GHG emissions. Accordingly, Long-range Energy Alternatives Planning has been used to the prediction of electricity consumption and supply, types of costs, and GHG emissions for a 20-year period (2011)(2012)(2013)(2014)(2015)(2016)(2017)(2018)(2019)(2020)(2021)(2022)(2023)(2024)(2025)(2026)… Show more

“…In Colombia, the LEAP was used to forecast the country's energy need from 2030 to 2050, considering climatic change, technological advancement, and demand for clean energy [154]. The effect of power conservation and emission reduction on the transport sector in China was evaluated using the Long-range Energy Alternatives Planning (LEAP) tool [98,155]. The electricity demand and supply forecasts, environmental impacts, and costs in Nigeria were determined using the LEAP modelling tool [157] and also for the energy planning in Kenya to analyze the electricity demand, potential atmospheric pollutants, technology stocks, and greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from 2010 to 2040 under various scenarios [157].…”
