Abstract :
Global power generation is increasing with renewable energy technologies such as solar energy (solar energy power plants), wind energy (wind turbines), thermal energy, and even ocean waves. Iran is close to the equator (25.2969 ° N), making it ideal for receiving sunlight. In 2020, Iran could only meet 900 MW (about 480 solar power plants and 420 MW home solar power plants), which is very small compared to the world average, of the electricity demand from solar energy. .. Yazd, Fars, and Kerman are one of Iran s leading candidates, using solar energy to produce approximately 68, 58, and 47 MW, respectively. Iran also has vast idle land for the construction of solar power plants. Renewable natural gas (RNG) is a pipeline-grade gas that is fully compatible with traditional natural gas and can be used in natural gas vehicles. RNG is essentially biogas (a gaseous product of the decomposition of organic matter) and is treated to a purity standard. Like traditional natural gas, RNG can be used as a transport fuel in the form of compressed natural gas (CNG) or liquefied natural gas (LNG). RNG is certified as an advanced biofuel under renewable fuel standards. Another term for this cleaned pipeline grade fuel, biomethane, refers to biogas that has been cleaned and conditioned to remove or reduce non-methane components. Biogas is produced from a variety of biomass sources through biochemical processes such as anaerobic digestion or thermochemical processes such as gasification. Biogas can be used to generate electricity and heat with a small amount of purification and is used as an alternative to traditional natural gas for cogeneration of power plants, not for automotive applications.
