“…The study also indicates that the sanctions have slowed Iran's progress in nuclear energy (Mohamadi et al, 2021). Furthermore, a Center for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS) study found that the sanctions have signi cantly impacted Iran's nuclear program by reducing its access to nancing and foreign technology.…”

The study focuses on the impact of economic sanctions on Iran’s economy, society, and regional influence, providing insights into the effectiveness of sanctions and their long-term implications. The study employs a mixed-methods approach, including quantitative analysis and content analysis of official speeches, press releases, and news. The sample period covered 50 observations for annual data from 1969 until 2018. The results of this study indicate that economic sanctions have had a significant impact on Iran’s economy, particularly on its oil exports, banking, and manufacturing sectors. The outcome presented a clear and concise picture of the impact of sanctions on Iran’s economic performance. The ARDL model suggests that sanctions significantly impact the macroeconomic instability of the Iranian economy, and the more severe the sanctions imposed on Iran, the more significant the negative impact on the country’s macroeconomic stability. The thematic analysis indicates that sanctions have limited Iran’s development of its nuclear program, but they have not stopped it completely. However, they have failed to reduce Iran’s ability to support militant groups or its regional influence. Furthermore, sanctions have affected the tone of official speeches by Iranian leaders towards the West, making them more cooperative when Iran faces economic hardship and internal unrest. The study recommends that policymakers should consider using multilateral sanctions besides applying diplomatic strategies to minimize the impact on civilians. Finally, policymakers should support moderate candidates in Iranian elections to encourage positive political changes.

To improve power management scheme in standalone mode using hybrid wind-gas turbine system. To reduce electrical fluctuations due to permanent magnet synchronous generator (PMSG) in wind turbine system. For power generation, the wind turbine system is a main source. When there is reduction in wind turbine power generation, then gas turbine gets activated immediately and produces the required electricity in effective manner. This reconfigurable power generation system is controlled by perturb and observe maximum power point tracking (P&O_MPPT) algorithm. The proposed wind-gas power management system algorithm and device performance was analysed and simulated using MATLAB R2021a for various wind turbine experiment parameters. The simulation result shows that the proposed model and algorithm effectively meets the load demand when the wind turbine speed falls below the minimum required value.

Globally, wind energy has proven to be one of the most sustainable sources of energy. Wind energy assessment plays a critical role on determining installation of wind turbines worldwide. This work presents the technical evaluation of wind energy potential using three available wind turbine models for prospective onshore wind farm in the southern Thailand at Krabi and Songkhla sites. Ten-minute interval wind data over a period of 3 to 4 years obtained from Weather Observing Station is utilized to observe the diurnal and monthly wind speed, as well as frequency distribution. WAsP program is applied for energy yield calculations and wind resource maps. Our results reveal that Krabi and Songkhla has the highest mean wind speed of 4.39 m/s in December and 3.91 m/s in February, respectively. The prevailing wind direction in Krabi and Songkhla are north-east and south-east, respectively. WAsP analyses show that the total net AEP for Krabi is 7163.782 MWh, 7762 MWh and 12731 MWh using 275 kW, 300 kW and 500 kW wind turbine models, respectively. Similarly, the total net AEP for Songkhla is 7116.63 MWh, 7775.245 MWh and 12390 MWh using 275 kW, 300 kW and 500 kW wind turbine models, respectively. The total capacity factor for Songkhla and Krabi is 29.1% and 28.3%, respectively. Our results indicate that Enercon E-40/5.40 500 kW wind turbine model produces the highest total gross AEP and total net AEP for Krabi and Songkhla sites. Besides, the Vergnet GEV MP-C 275 kW turbine model shows slightly higher capacity factor in case of both sites. The findings of this study reflect that small to medium size wind turbines can be utilized to generate electricity at the sites.
