Energy Regulatory Entity and its Legal ‎Capacities in the Non-Oil Economy (Case Study ‎of the Ministry of Energy Quasi-Regulatory ‎Entity: Iranian Electricity Market ‎Regulatory Board)‎

In non-oil economies, the main reliance on revenue and currency is removed from oil resources and other sources are considered. This reduction in the concentration of energy resources, especially oil resources, has had a profound effect on the framework of energy laws, as well as the legal status and capacity of energy regulators, resulting in greater assurance of energy efficiency and related institutions. In this study, the legal capacity of regulatory institutions as an indirect tool in the non-oil economy is considered. Also, since the Iranian Electricity Market Regulatory Authority is an institution with similar powers to a regulatory body, although more limited, in this study it is considered as a quasi-regulatory body of its powers and functions as if the main foundations of the economy are not oil-based.
