Using renewable energy sources is one of the human solutions to reduce environmental pollution and is a suitable alternative to fossil fuels. Therefore, different countries have established laws and regulations in line with the construction of renewable power plants and have also considered incentives to encourage investors. In Iran, the rules for the construction of renewable power plants are defined by different relevant organs according to the type of power plant. One of the most essential issues facing power plant builders is the economic evaluation of power plant construction and the calculation of the amount of initial capital, taking into account the granted facilities and predicting the profitability of the project. Therefore, there is a need for software for the economic evaluation of the construction of power plants, taking into account the laws governing the construction of power plants in Iran. In this article, software for the economic evaluation of geothermal power plants under the title "GEO-ECO" has been designed and presented in the Excel environment. Using GEO-ECO software, the amount of initial capital, granted facilities, tax, and profitability rate of the geothermal power plant construction project in Iran can be evaluated.
