  7. Abstract:
  8. Energy efficiency for Iran, which has large reserves of oil and gas but also has a high energy consumption is important because it ensures the country's energy security and saving each energy unit creates energy exports opportunity. Buildings have high energy saving potential; this sector uses about thirty percent of energy consumption (about half the gas and thirty percent of the annual electricity consumption). Households are not motivated in saving energy because government pays energy subsidy. In this research building energy consumption (in Tehran) modeled by bottom up approach. Then the effect of economic incentive tools such as subsidy, loan and tax on motivation in energy saving studied based on government and households cost-benefit analysis. An assessment of the Results indicates if government pay subsidy to less than 75 m2 dwellings and impose tax or give loan to above 100 m2 dwellings, it would save up to 1.45 billion m3 gas and 870 Gwh electricity, annually. Furthermore, it would reduce 2.2 million tonnes CO2 emissions and 0.2 million tonnes CH4 emissions. On the other hand, government benefits 924 billion Toman for energy saving and 88.7 billion Toman for avoiding gas emission release, annually
