In recent years, Iran has faced an imbalance in the supply and demand of various types of energy carriers, including gas, electricity, gasoline, and diesel, which is one of the fundamental and important challenges of the country's energy sector policy makers, and it is obvious that for To solve this challenge, consumption management should be done along with production management. One of the issues that has led to electricity imbalance in recent years is the lack of development of power plants in proportion to the growth of electricity consumption. Increasing the share of renewable energy production, including solar energy, in accordance with the very high capacity and capability of solar energy in Iran, is one of the effective solutions to resolve the electricity imbalance in the country, and realizing this potential capacity is very important. About 35% of electricity consumption in Iran is related to the industrial sector, of which small and medium industries have a significant share. The movement of Iran's small and medium industries towards the use of solar energy can play an important role in solving the country's electricity imbalance, in addition to benefits such as stable electricity supply for these industries or environmental effects. Therefore, it is necessary to adopt practical and appropriate strategies for the development of the use of solar energy in order to supply electricity to small and medium-sized industries in Iran, which has been studied in this research as the first focused research effort in this field. One of the most frequent and widely used methods in researches in recent years for extracting and prioritizing strategies is the use of a combination of SWOT and multi-criteria decision-making methods, including AHP. Therefore, in this research, the combined SWOT-AHP method has been used to extract and prioritize strategies corresponding to the development of the use of solar energy in small and medium industries in Iran. The method used in this research is of qualitative-quantitative type and the stages of conducting the research are as follows: in the first stage, the factors related to the SWOT matrix including strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats are qualitatively analyzed in accordance with The subject of research has been identified and in the second stage, the weighting of these factors was carried out with the quantitative method of AHP using an expert questionnaire, and finally, in the third stage, the strategies corresponding to the qualitatively identified factors were extracted and the strategies were prioritized with AHP method has been done. It is worth mentioning that the research community includes experts related to solar energy and small and medium industries in Iran, who were selected by purposeful and snowball sampling until reaching theoretical saturation, that is, 11 people. The validity of the codes extracted from the library studies and semi-structured interviews were also checked with the Lavshe method and its reliability was estimated using the Holstein method.
In this research, after identifying 6 strengths, 8 weaknesses, 7 opportunities and 7 threats as factors for the development of the use of solar energy in small and medium industries and prioritizing them with an expert questionnaire, the corresponding strategies were extracted and then prioritized. The extracted strategies (including 7 strategies) in accordance with the identified factors related to the research, after weighting in the order of priority from the first to the seventh rank, are: pricing reform in the electricity industry (with a weight of 0.224), suitable financial support for the industrialist (with a weight of 0.183), gaining the confidence of the industrialist (with a weight of 0.152), managing the combination between domestic production and imports (0.134), Strengthening Satba by promoting the position in the administrative structure and choosing a strong and efficient management team (with a weight of 0.121), training and culture for craftsmen (with a weight of 0.114) and increasing local production by including the technical management of the national network ( with a weight of 0.072).
