Analysis and Development of the Kofr Al-Labad Well Solar Power Plant

Abstract

Renewable energy technologies are becoming increasingly competitive with traditional energy technologies, due to their continually improving performance, low cost, and growing recognition of their environmental and economic benefits. Solar energy harnessing systems offer the advantage of emitting no pollutants into the atmosphere, unlike the combustion of fossil fuels. This project aims to study the design of the network connected to the photovoltaic system of the Kafr El-Labad Cooperative Society, by working with more than one scenario to achieve the best production and cost design. The capacity of the pump is approximately 120 horsepower, in addition to the presence of a few lighting loads. The project will analyze and develop the solar power plant from a technical and economic point of view, and present proposals and recommendations to raise the efficiency of the system.
