ABSTRACT On the path to achieving net‐zero emissions targets by 2050 and meeting increasing electricity demand, investigations on carbon intensity of is interest as an important decision‐making parameter in decarbonizing power sector replacing nonrenewable plants regions low rainfall limited water resources enhance transparency policies toward transition. In this context, potential solar photovoltaics (PV) has been highlighted recent years due their low‐emission compared other renewable sources, highly regarded economic prospects, unprecedented global growth installations. Considering Iran's crisis terms mismatch between production consumption a worsening environment high‐carbon power, paper presents assessment environmental viability 10 MW on‐grid PV plant improve energy security sustainability. First, (CI) levelized cost (LCOE) generated industry Iran comparison with status discussed. Then, aspects different types inverter modulus panels are assessed utilizing life cycle approach, select optimum design CI. Finally, scenarios analyzed LCOE sensitivity analysis availability factor. The combined environmental‐economic results case CI 63.9 tCO 2 /GWh 11 $/MWh offers deep insights into financial performance PVs country's sustainable development roadmap highlights importance regulatory policies, absorbing green climate funds, investment expansion systems enable decarbonization measure for development.
