4 FAQs about Algerian Solar Containerized Grid-Connected Type for Cement Plants

How many solar PV plants are there in Algeria?

It comprises of 93,792 photovoltaic panels mounted on 40 ha of surface area. However, the evaluation of already existed PV plants in Algeria is an essential step for future large-scale solar PV plant developments.

Should Algeria invest in solar energy?

The performance results are considered to be satisfactory as compared with utility-scale PV plants located elsewhere in the world. Hence, these results encourage the Algerian governments to make more investments in solar energy, especially in this region.

Does module temperature affect performance of largest PV plant in Algeria?

Performance of largest PV plant in Algeria was evaluated using IEC 61724 standards. SCADA monitored results strongly coincide with simulated performance. Degradation analysis indicate the strong impact of module temperature on Performance ratio Performance results are satisfactory in comparison with other PV plants worldwide.

Does a solar tracker work in Algeria?

Zaghba et al. (2022) conducted an experimental study on 11.28 kWp grid power plants with sun tracking in Algeria's south. The results show that the two-axis tracker performs better and collects about 12.91 % more energy than the fixed PV array (Zaghba et al., 2022).
