Renewable energy such as solar and wind energy can solve the major problems of humanity such as electricity and fresh water. The renewable energy sources are promising to take a significant share in the energy sector as a viable option for integration with conventional fossil fuel power plants. In this paper, the production of ۱ MW of electricity for several households in the city of Sirjan in southern Iran has been studied. The actual data required by the model including solar irradiation, air temperature, load profile, cost of energy for Sirjan, Iran have been utilized in the proposed model. Considering the Iranian market, the fixed and current costs of building this power plant have been studied. Then, using Hummer software, the amount of electricity production per month has been studied. Results showed that Scaled data were used for calculations in HOMER. It had a scaled annual average of ۱۱۲۷ kWh/day and the peak load was ۰.۴۶۷ kW. The maximum electricity energy is obtained in July.
