Journal Title: International Research Journal of Applied and Basic Sciences - Year 2014, Vol 8, Issue 9
Abstract
Renewable energy sources play a role in providing energy services in a sustainable manner and, in particular,in mitigating climate change. At the same time our heavy reliance on fossil fuel based energy sources dramatically increases CO2 emissions, which are a main cause of global warming. GHG emissions associated with the provision of energy services are a major cause of climate change. We not only need additional energy supplies; the energy also needs to be clean. Ultimately we need to transform our energy system towards renewable energy solutions.Iran has a high amount of renewable energy sources: there are favourable conditions for the profitable use of wind energy, very good opportunities for the extension of water power use as well as an ideal setting for the use of solar energy.For renewable energy to make a major donation to economic development, job creation, reduced fossil fuel dependence, and lower greenhouse gas emissions, In this paper ,the role of renewable energy and its impact on climate change and the iran?s government policy and different organization that are involved in renewable energy are discussed.
