Speaking in the induction ceremony of the head of the Iran’s Renewable Energy and Energy Efficiency Organization (SATBA) on Monday, he stated that electricity consumption has increased compared to production capacities, IRNA reported.
“Most of the countries, especially developed ones, realizing the importance of renewable energy development, have invested a lot in this field,” Aliabadi noted.
He went on to say that due to the limitations we have in the field of fossil fuels, we need to take more serious steps in the development of renewable energy.
One of the important tasks of SATBA is to find reliable and sustainable methods for the development of electrical energy in accordance with the environmental considerations of the country, the minister said.
Up-to-date and accurate monitoring of the latest developments related to clean energy in the world is another important agenda of SATBA, he added.
Aliabadi also stated that it is necessary for our colleagues in the Renewable Energy and Energy Efficiency Organization to have coherent measures in the field of clean energy by using the potentials of universities as well as technology-based companies.
