Due to the serious CO 2 emissions and air pollution in large cities of the country alongside with the high solar energy harvesting potential and growing trend of utilization of PV technology in Iran, we investigate environmental and economic aspects of two different scales of PV systems, 20 kW as a candidate for small-scale (for residential and commercial users) and 1 MW as a candidate for large-scale (utility-scale) grid-connected PV power systems in Tehran, Iran, using RETScreen software based on the new feed-in tariff policy. ./cache/cord-283133-jspfwuqu.txt ./txt/cord-283133-jspfwuqu.txt
