Tehran Refinery to Build 500-MW Solar Power Station 

Plans are underway to build a 500-megawatt photovoltaic power station at Tehran’s Oil Refinery Company, the head of the company said.
“The refinery is committed to working for a low-carbon future, which primarily involves reducing greenhouse gas emissions,” Hamed Armanfar was also quoted as saying by IRNA.
This will be the first solar plant in a refining facility of Iran. Renewable energy is the cheapest option for improving access to electricity, reducing air pollution and cutting CO2 emissions, he added.
It also helps boost world gross domestic product growth by 1%, employing close to 29 million people and generating a 15% increase in welfare, mainly through health benefits from reduced air pollution.
