Abstract
Solar energy is one of the most important types of new and renewable energy that, if it replaces fossil fuels, can end existing concerns about the end of life as well as environmental pollution caused by fossil energy carriers and price fluctuations and energy crises. Considering the high potential of solar energy in large areas of Iran, among energy sources, solar energy is more attractive for researchers. Today, many countries use solar power plants in grid-connected and grid-independent formats. The use of renewable energies is due to the reduction of dependence on oil and gas, sources that are less harmful to the environment, being cheap, permanent, clean, reducing the consumption of fossil fuels and reducing greenhouse gases, the ability to be used at home and on a large scale, and easy maintenance are some of the advantages of using renewable energy. They are from solar and wind energy, which have turned these features of renewable energy into the best and cleanest energies.
