Economic evaluation indexes suggests that in the absence of government subsidies for these two methods, none of these ways are economical and they have negative net present value. governments in order to achieve the goals of social justice must implement such projects with negative net present value. in such circumstances, government subsidies for the difference between the desired values of a unit of electricity from power plant to achieve a positive net present value. We assume this precondition to electrification, using a solar photovoltaic system, because it has less negative net present value. %U https://jte.ut.ac.ir/article_58452_7fbc96a0a735817eed2a6f214afb01d6.pdf
