An important challenge for any developing country is to achieve their green energy targets for clean electricity generation. In this respect, Iran is no exception. This paper sets out a reference point for Iran as a less developed country by learning the green electricity production policies from developed countries; Germany and Denmark. We used a mixed research approach. The most significant lessons learnt includes the relevance of the financial and regulatory tools and policies that have been successfully applied in Denmark and Germany. Our findings show the structure of fuel allocation to energy generation plants needs reforming. |
