Iran''s total area is around 1600,000 km 2 or 1.6×10 12 m 2 with about 300 clear sunny days in a year and an average 2200 kW-h solar radiation per square meter.
TEHRAN - Iran installed approximately 600 megawatts (MW) of solar power capacity in the past Iranian year (ending March 2025), marking a fourfold increase over the previous annual average of 150 MW, according to
In 2019,Iran''s renewable energy capacity reached 841 MW,with solar energy accounting for the majority of this capacity. The country has also been investing heavily in solar energy
The higher share of wind compared to PV can be justified by the fact that both solar PV and wind energy are already low cost at 25 and 36 €/ MWh, respectively, but wind energy matches

Meeting 5% of Iran’s electricity demand through wind energy would require around 11 GW of installed wind capacity, translating to more than 20,000 green jobs.
The unique contribution of this study is that it provides a comprehensive country-wide technical analysis using hourly data of wind meters in all provinces of Iran. Moreover, this study provides a novel country-level financial analysis of wind power in Iran and suggests potential sources of financing wind energy in Iran sustainably.
The adoption of onshore wind energy with advanced technology attracts companies for high investment. Iran's onshore wind power installed capacity increased by 0.6% in 2021. In 2021, the installed capacity of solar energy in Iran was 310 MW as compared to 2020, which was 308 MW.
Iran is situated in a wind belt. However, the installed wind capacity in Iran is around 300 MW, which is minuscule compared with the global 651 GW capacity as of 2021. Using novel data from wind trackers across Iran, the paper’s findings show immense potential for wind energy in Iran from a technical perspective.
In November 2022, the Iranian government increased private companies' guaranteed purchase prices for solar and wind power generated by 20-60% compared to 2021. Iran's Ministry of Energy announced a new directive to raise tariffs (for private sector producers) to encourage investment.
Iran's onshore wind power installed capacity increased by 0.6% in 2021. In 2021, the installed capacity of solar energy in Iran was 310 MW as compared to 2020, which was 308 MW.
