Sizing of a Solar Parking System Connected to the Grid in Adrar

Abstract

This paper presents a sizing study of a solar parking system connected to the grid. This system is installed in Adrar region, south west of Algeria. It is composed from photovoltaic panels, cables, converters. All these elements have been modeled and sized using analytical method. The proposed method is validated by simulation using PVSYST software. The simulation results were discussed and compared with the analytical results. They proved the validity of the model to make a good system sizing for different applications.
