Abstract

Human development in various economic, social and environmental dimensions depends on the optimal production and consumption of energy, so sustainable energy supply is an essential principle for development. Given the importance of sports facilities and the importance of energy consumption in these facilities, this study was conducted with the aim of optimal energy management in sports venues under the Ministry of Energy with emphasis on renewable energy. The method of the present study is applied in terms of purpose and descriptive-analytical in terms of how to use the data. The statistical population of the present study includes sports facilities under the Ministry of Energy and, on a case-by-case basis, the electricity industry of East Azerbaijan Province. Based on the research findings, it was determined that electricity tariffs in sports venues have exploitation licenses (public consumption, cultural and sports tariffs) and the lowness of this tariff compared to tariffs (agricultural, domestic, commercial, etc.) motivates consumption management and Cost management has eliminated. The use of renewable energy in these places as a government complex and also in case of transfer to the private sector from the point of view of private management does not have investment incentive benefits and has no economic justification. Based on the rate of return based on 10400 Rials of free investment, the rate of return on investment is 13.73 and the payback period is 83 months, and based on the rate of return based on 560 Rials, the rate of return on investment is 12.4 a
