Renewable and Sustainable Energy Reviews, 2007, vol. 11, issue 1, 173-181

Abstract: Utilization of non-renewable energy sources not only results in environmental deterioration but also confronts us with the dilemma of a rapid rate of depletion of such resources, while renewable energy sources can serve us indefinitely with minimal environmental impacts as compared with fossil and nuclear fuels. This article deals with the extent of harnessing renewable energy sources for power generation in Iran, a Middle Eastern Asian nation.
