  7. Abstract:
  8. The purpose of this study is to analyze the economic, welfare, and environmental effects of the policy of reforming energy subsidies in the industrial sector. The policy of reforming energy subsidies has been examined in the form of 6 scenarios based on the elimination of the current system of payment and redistribution of income among households and producers in certain proportions using a computable general equilibrium model. In the static model, economic variables include variables of production, price and net exports at the industry level and GDP variables, consumer price index, household consumption, government spending, investment, total imports and exports, prices and employment of primary production factors They have been evaluated at the level of the whole economy. In terms of welfare variables, the welfare of rural and urban income deciles is evaluated. In the field of environmental variables, the emissions of greenhouse gases and pollutants including carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide, carbon monoxide, nitrogen oxide, sulfur dioxide and equivalent carbon dioxide are examined. In the dynamic model, the trend of price and production changes in the industrial sector and the emission of greenhouse gases and pollutants up to the time horizon of 2025 are discussed
