Changes in weather and their impacts on various parts of the Earth have become one of the major priorities worldwide today, and they can seriously affect human life. Changes in precipitation levels and patterns, along with temperature increases, cause a series of changes that create various damages in different sectors. Given the numerous issues associated with this phenomenon, it is necessary to invest and make appropriate efforts towards understanding its effects, adaptation, and even reducing greenhouse gas emissions.
The United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) was adopted in 1992 and became mandatory in 1994. It laid the foundation for the current system of reporting information related to the implementation of the convention. Reporting information on greenhouse gas emissions from sources and their removal by sinks, as well as actions taken by parties to reduce emissions and adapt to climate change in accordance with the convention, is key to the success of implementing the convention at both national and international levels.
Iran also joined this convention in 1996 after the approval of the government and the Islamic Consultative Assembly. On 8th Azar, 1394 (November 29th, 2015), the responsibilities of the executive bodies in the field of reducing greenhouse gas emissions were communicated by the First Vice President. The Council of Ministers mandated that all executive bodies are obliged to implement relevant measures in the National Participation Program for Reducing Greenhouse Gas Emissions within the approved budget allocations.
One of the most important goals of the establishment of Behineh Sazan Sanat Tasisat Company is the management and enhancement of energy efficiency, as well as the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions and environmental pollutants in order to preserve national resources and promote sustainable development of the country through standardization, education, and innovative technological measures. Currently, this company is a member of CTCN (Climate Technology Center & Network) and has the license to implement research projects in the field of energy and carbon on a global scale. Furthermore, this company is one of the few private sector companies in the country that holds a research collaboration certificate in energy consumption management from the Ministry of Petroleum, and it has played a crucial role as an energy and environment hub in related projects of this ministry, particularly in the National Iranian Gas Company (NIGC).
The areas of activity of this company in the field of the environment include the following:
The most important achievements of this organization in the field of environment are as follows:
The Behineh Sazan Sanat Tasisat Company has been collaborating with the Department of Environment since 1394 (2015). In addition to working on the development and implementation of the Clean Air Act, the company has published the “MRV Guide (Measurement, Reporting, and Verification) for Developing Countries” in cooperation with this organization. Please contact us to obtain a copy of the book. (
One of the other major projects of this company is its collaboration with the Department of Environment in preparing the “National Greenhouse Gas Emissions Inventory Report.”
Additionally, Behineh Sazan Sanat Tasisat Company has been the executor of the project “Development and Preparation of Measurement, Reporting, and Verification (MRV) System” in collaboration with the Department of Environment, the Vice Presidency for Science, Technology, and Knowledge-Based Economy, the United Nations Development Program (UNDP).
This company has collaborated as a partner in the project “Legislative analysis, institutional arrangement, and development of national guidelines for sectoral GHG emission inventory calculations for Climate Promise” being carried out at the Department of Environment by the Academic Center for Education, Culture and Research (ACECR) of the University of Tehran.
Preparing the concept note and developing a proposal for utilizing carbon facilities: One of the first acceptable projects by the Green Climate Fund (GCF) is being formulated by this organization to present the final proposal for regional electricity in Khuzestan Province.
Innovation and research: One of the missions of this company is to conduct applied research and explore the latest scientific and industrial advancements on a global scale, while endeavoring to implement viable and cost-effective projects based on scientific and research accomplishments. Developing a national plan for Boiler Room technical inspection, studying and implementing a pilot project to reduce energy consumption in 600,000 Boiler Rooms nationwide, researching and consulting on energy optimization and reduction of greenhouse gas and pollutant emissions at CGS (City Gas Station) across the country, as well as drafting, translating, and presenting research articles in national and international journals and conferences are among the important activities of this organization in this section.
Project implementation, consultation, design, supervision, management, and execution of projects related to energy consumption optimization and carbon emissions reduction: Energy audit in buildings with a floor area exceeding 2,000,000 m³, with various uses, and energy audit in over 60 different factories nationwide, as well as the implementation of an Energy Management System (ISO 50001) in many subsidiaries of the Ministry of Petroleum are among
the achievements of this organization. Furthermore, as an innovator in implementing energy consumption optimization solutions in CGS (City Gas Station) across the country, this company has provided the groundwork for a 30% reduction in energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions, as well as a 90% reduction in carbon monoxide emissions.
Collaboration in the development of laws, standards, design, and construction of test rigs: Since its establishment, this company has been actively involved in the development and implementation of appropriate standards, policies, and regulations for efficient energy consumption and reduction of greenhouse gas emissions and environmental pollutants in the country. The development of over 100 standards in the field of energy-intensive equipment and processes, as well as the design and construction of laboratories used in determining energy labels and pollutant emission levels in accordance with national standards at the National Iranian Gas Company (NIGC) and major industries in the country, are among the achievements of this organization.
