Nowadays, due to the need of all countries to provide sustainable energy, nuclear energy plays a significant role in the energy portfolio of developed countries and developng countries. For this reason, it is very critical to choose the appropriate nuclear fuel cycles for the optimal use of nuclear energy. In addition, it is important to draw the road map of the country's nuclear industry. ; which itself is a function of several parameters (the level of nuclear knowledge, sources and reserves of nuclear materials economic factors, etc.). These factors play a significant role in determining the appropriate cycle). In this research, four main scenarios have been proposed by comparing uranium, plutonium, and thorium fuel cycles. In addition, four scenarios have been examined by examining nuclear material capacity. Suitable and cautious fuel cycles have been introduced for each required nuclear fuel scenario and consumption amount. Among the proposed scenarios, the scenario of "accessing sufficient uranium resources and opening up the enrichment and reprocessing" was introduced as the most likely scenario and based on the suggested axes, the most suitable closed uranium fuel cycles, with a fast sodium reactor and uranium TRU and FP fuel cycle” were selected" with a minimum of 2320 and a maximum of 5296 GW of energy production and total costs of approximately $117 million per GW of energy.
