An accepted fact is that the world required energy is growing rapidly for societies and we also have cheap fossil energy sources that certainly, in a few decades will be finished but slowly. Human should use of clean and renewable energy for keeping these valuable fossil resources to future generation and prevent than environmental damages that created by these resources and answer to increased demand for energy [10]. In this study in first has analysis effect Factors on solar and wind energy and then the best place have been identified for wind and solar power plants in the kerman province with Using of GIS software and multi attribute decision making technique. To identify the best places for wind power plants have been used GIS software and to identify the best places for solar power plants have been used of AHP, TOPSIS, SAW methods and finally MADM method. in this study Sirjan county Have been identified as the best place for solar power plants and Rafsanjan county as the best place for wind power plants
