TThe present research examines the role and benefits of nuclear energy in enhancing Iran’s energy security. The central question is how nuclear energy can reduce Iran's dependence on fossil fuels and bolster energy security. This question holds particular significance given that Iran is among the largest greenhouse gas emitters in the Middle East. The main hypothesis is that with the expansion of nuclear energy, Iran can meet domestic energy demands while mitigating risks associated with global energy market fluctuations and climate change, potentially creating foreign policy leverage through deterrence against external threats.
The methodology includes analyzing documentation, credible scientific articles, and international reports on the topic. Findings suggest that nuclear energy, as a stable and low-carbon resource, helps diversify Iran's energy portfolio and reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Given Iran’s high dependence on fossil fuels, nuclear energy could improve energy security and expand the country’s power generation capacity. Additionally, considering Iran's location amid Western-aligned and nuclear-armed countries, this energy source could serve as a deterrent against foreign threats.
