Energy resources optimal allocation in Iran regarding subsidies lifting

Abstract

This research presents a mathematical model for oil and gas optimal allocation to different sectors in Iran using operations research techniques. Sectors are residential and commercial, transportation, industries, agriculture, exports, injection to oil reservoirs and power plans as a secondary energy producer. Optimal allocation of energy resources to end-uses from 2011 to 2021 has been done using a linear programming model regarding lifting of subsidies. The results provide scientific basic for the optimal allocation of energy resources in Iran.This research presents a mathematical model for oil and gas optimal allocation to different sectors in Iran using operations research techniques.
