Photovoltaic system for transmission substation application

Am Al-Ashwal

Renewable Energy, 1998, vol. 14, issue 1, 157-163

Abstract: This paper suggests using a photovoltaic system to supply the required power for the operation of switching substations. This suggestion is justified by the low power demand needed for this type of substations and the high cost of conventional means for performing this task. A design methodology for the PV system is described and a comparative study showing the superiority of photovoltaic system is given.
