Globally Iran ranks 14th in access to technical and scientific knowledge for generating renewable energy, but has no impressive role when it comes to producing clean energy, head of the 4th Iran Renewable Energy Conference and Exhibition (Iran REC 2019) said Monday in Tehran.
“Globally, total renewable energy generation capacity reached 2,351 GW at the end of 2018, around a third of total installed electricity capacity, while Iran's share was barely 290 megawatts,” IRNA quoted Hamid Chitchian as saying.
The capacity to generate electricity from renewables has now reached 850 MW. According to plans, this will rise to 1,000 MW come March 2020.
