“…For this reason, there is a global effort to reduce CO 2 emissions. Approximately 90% of the CO 2 and 75% of the total greenhouse gas emissions in developed countries originates from the energy sector (Alavijeh et al, 2013). However, as the total greenhouse gas emission per kWh from coal-fired power plants is twice as large as that from natural gas-fired power plants (Agrawal et al, 2014;Tian et al, 2014) there is an incentive to exchange coal-fueled power plants with natural gas to reach global CO 2 reduction goals (Tanaka et al, 2019).…”

“…Trend of export and import of electricity is given in Table 5. In 2013In , 2014, Iran exported about 4.36%, 3.46%, and 3.49% of its total electricity generation, respectively (total power generation in these three years are respectively about 262, 274, and 280 TWh). This amount of exported electricity power is distributed over 12 months of 2013-2015 in different amounts (between 4-11.5% in a month) as shown in Figure 4.…”

“…During this time scale, Iran's power industry has experienced a rapid expansion of power plants due to its growing domestic needs, intensified industrialization, and electricity export ambition (Iran's Power Industry Analysis Investment Risks & Opportunities in Post-Sanctions Era, 2015). Emissions from fossil fuel power plants is considered a potential polluting agent that largely threatens the human health and the environment, which could be further considered as a phenomenon with external cost (Alavijeh et al, 2013). An external cost describes whenever a social or economic activity of one group impacts another group.…”

“…Sadeghi and Hosseini formulated a fuzzy linear model for optimization of the supply energy system [3]; Kiani and Pourfakhraei presented a large system dynamic model of the energy and economy sector of Iran for investigating policies in different sectors of supply and demand in order to control the future production and consumption trends of the country; however, they did not consider the environmental effects of GHG emissions in their attempt [4]. Several researchers have studied GHG emissions but they have considered some parts of the energy system of Iran [5][6][7][8][9]. In 2013, a fuzzy programming model was developed by Kazemi et al to allocate the oil and gas resources of Iran optimally to minimize GHG [10].…”
