Green switchboard and industries included in it
Electric energy produced from renewable sources such as the sun and wind is called green electricity. The concept of green electricity in Iran was introduced with the launch of a green electricity panel in the energy exchange market in order to fulfill the goals of Article 16 of the Knowledge-Based Production Leaps Law and to supply electricity to industries with a power consumption of more than one megawatt since the beginning of 1402.
The green electrical panel and its first transaction since the beginning of June 1402 and the entry of renewable energy into the stock market can be an answer to the 3 problems of electricity imbalance, gas imbalance and financial resources imbalance in the field of energy.
According to the instructions of the Minister of Energy regarding how to calculate the price of electricity for industrial units based on Article 16 of the Knowledge-based Production Leap Law, industries with a demand of more than 1 megawatt are required to supply 5% of their electricity consumption from renewable sources within 5 years. The following regulations describe the implementation of this law.
In line with the implementation of Article 16 of the knowledge-based production leap law, the executive instructions of the Ministry of Energy for the purchase of green electricity and the calculation of electricity bills for industrial units with a power of more than one megawatt (included industrial units) were announced from the beginning of 1402.
According to Article 16 of the Knowledge-Based Production Leap, industries with a power of more than 1 megawatt are required to supply 5% of their electricity consumption from renewable sources within 5 years.
Ali Akbar Mehrabian, Minister of Energy, through this executive instruction, has announced the method of calculating the price of electricity for industrial units based on Article 16 of the Knowledge-Based Production Leaps Law, which is as follows:
- Included industrial units do not include tourism facilities.
-
The percentage included in 1402 is equivalent to one percent (1%) of the total electrical energy consumed by industrial units with a consumption power of more than one megawatt. In case of supplying the said energy by building a renewable power plant or buying green (renewable) electricity supplied in the second panel of the energy exchange or concluding a bilateral contract with non-governmental producers of renewable electricity, the remaining cost of the consumed energy (after deducting the consumed electricity from the total the energy consumed by the industrial unit) according to the average load, peak load and low load consumption, sharing and electricity bill according to the billing procedure, including the energy price and other legal matters, and considering the procedures specified in the electricity exchange development guidelines In the energy exchange, it is issued for that part of the energy that is supplied through the exchange. (Note: The percentage included during the years 1403 to 1406 is added annually by one percentage point.)
-
In case of non-supply of all or part of the included energy consumption by building a renewable power plant or purchasing green (renewable) electricity supplied in the second panel of the energy exchange or concluding a bilateral contract with non-governmental producers of renewable electricity, the tariff for the included energy consumption not provided in the aforementioned way with The average electricity purchase rate from renewable power plants is calculated and received in each of the mid-load, peak-load and off-load periods. (Note: Iran’s Renewable Energy and Energy Efficiency Organization (SATBA) is required to calculate the average electricity purchase rate from renewable power plants based on the two-month average of the latest approved bills of investors and inform the parent company of Tavanir by the end of each month. do.)
-
If the amount of renewable energy production is more than the included electricity consumption, the subscriber can request to use the renewable energy produced in excess of the included electricity consumption in the following periods, up to one year at most, or to use its benefits based on the notified regulations. will be informed by Satba, will benefit. (Note: Iran’s Renewable Energy and Energy Efficiency Organization (SATBA) will provide its base by the end of each month with the list of industries included in this paragraph or industries that have energy included in Article (16) of the Knowledge Production Leap Law through authorized methods. and informs the parent company of Tavanir Specialized.)
-
If there is a renewable power plant at the place of consumption and the power plant is connected to the industry’s internal network, it is mandatory to install separate and visible measuring devices for the owner of the network so that the amount of energy produced and consumed can be reliably and separately measured. Otherwise, the power plant must be directly connected to the public power grid through separate measuring devices.
