Abstract

The research aims to determine the sustainable added value (economic, social and environmental) according to the standard of renewable resources and clean energy using a chain technology for the activities of the electric power production company stations and the secondary activities of the transmission and distribution companies and to reduce pollution by reducing financial costs that can be excluded and calculated quantitatively for traditional expenditure  classifications such as salaries, wages, maintenance expenses and gas emissions costs (black pollution) within financial and non-financial indicators, where the value chain was employed to reveal aspects and topics of the reduced costs that can be avoided by investing and designing a clean solar energy system according to the topics of the clean energy standard of the International Sustainability Standards Council and the United Nations program to achieve the level of zero emissions gradually from the year 2030, to reduce 45% of toxic and polluting emissions resulting from the burning of fossil fuels and their derivatives to produce energy, reaching zero emissions in the year 2050 for the companies of the Iraqi Ministry of Electricity. The study concluded with a set of conclusions and recommendations, the most important of which is that the design of solar systems Based on inexhaustible, clean renewable resources, it enhances the capacity of Iraq's electricity generation system for consumer centers by applying the green value chain, which reflects aspects and topics that add sustainable green value to the primary generation companies' stations and the secondary transmission and distribution companies' activities.
