Abstract
One criteria for the success in achieving sustainable development is to supply electricity by considering the diversity of generation technology. Also, the consumption of fossil fuels is considered as a major challenge for sustainable development. Relying heavily on fossil resources for electricity generation and the growing trend in emissions is one of the serious problems of developing countries. In this research, the sustainable growth of Iran's electricity industry in the short and long term time horizons is investigated using three game theory models in a system dynamic model. The competition, cooperation and profits of electricity suppliers as well as the government's role are modeled. Carbon dioxide emissions, water and natural gas consumption are also calculated. The results show the amount of carbon dioxide emissions, water and gas consumption in the Stackelberg and cooperation model decrease by 19.3%, 18.4% and 16.5%, respectively, compared to the continuation of the current trend.
