Abstract
The main objectives of the present study were evaluation of the economic, welfare and environmental effects of applying Feed-in tariff policy in the Iranian Economy. In this regard, the E3 type of hybrid recursive dynamic model was studied. Therefore, the model is used for the period of 1390-1404, to evaluate the effects of FIT policy under two different scenarios, similar and different guaranteed purchase price, in order to achieve 10% share for renewable energy in total electricity production in 1404. The result shows that in in both cases, pollution and its social cost reduction has been mainly caused because of the reduction in the sectorial GDP. Therefore, a definitive statement about the selection of a proper policy depends on the environmental purposes of the country.
