The METSAP or Energy Modeling and Sustainable Energy Systems Laboratory has been setup by the aim of modeling energy systems for developing the knowledge and technology of modeling and planning of energy systems for promoting renewable energy’s’ share in the national energy systems in all dimensions of energy demand.
In this laboratory, translation to higher renewable energy share in national, regional, and provincial energy systems are modeled and the various effects of integration in economic, social, and policy-making conditions on the sustainability of energy systems are analyzed.
On a local scale for large energy consuming units, energy consumption analysis is developed and the sustainability of energy systems is analyzed in terms of energy costs, emissions and effects on global warming.
METSAP Lab. researchers are trying to model and analyze the renewable energy integration in the country’s energy systems in different policy conditions (supportive and non-supportive) with different methods of energy modeling and provide comprehensive information for energy policy making to the country’s energy decision makers.
In this laboratory, interdisciplinary research topics in various fields, including:
- The climate and energy team bringing years of experience with clean energy solutions
- Climate change and Carbone footprint studies
- CO2 emission control of energy sector
- Technical and economic feasibility of new energy development plans at the national, provincial, city and institutional levels
- Analysis of energy systems including electricity, heat, agriculture and transportation
- Modeling and forecasting the supply of energy resources, including renewable and non-renewable energy
- Potential mapping and evaluation of wind, solar, geothermal, marine, oil and gas and coal energy sources
- Preparation of an atlas of renewable energy resources
- Generation of atlas and potential assessment of the province’s renewable energy resources for planning their development at the provincial level
- Modeling and analyzing greenhouse gas emissions and their effects on global warming independently or jointly with other laboratories
- Training of skilled engineers in all fields of energy modeling and energy systems analysis,
- Development and launch of various tools for modeling and analysis of energy systems
- Provide the necessary tools for the analysis of energy systems
- Fundamental and applied research on modeling the sustainable development of energy systems
- Modeling of energy systems to reduce greenhouse gas emissions
- Helping to improve the level of modeling technology in the country and training researchers in this field
