Environmental impacts of a stand-alone photovoltaic system in
This study aimed to assess and compare the environmental impacts of stand-alone PV systems with storage installed in Burkina Faso. Two scenarios differing in battery technology (lead acid and lithium-ion) and two others in end-of-life management (landfill and recycling) were studied.
Grid-connected photovoltaic (PV) systems with batteries
To achieve our study objectives, firstly we conducted a survey of a real situation of one African electrical grid, the case of Burkina Faso (SONABEL: National Electricity Company of Burkina). Secondly, as study case, we undertake a sizing, a modeling and a simulation of a grid-connected PV system with batteries storage for the LAME laboratory
Energy storage integration with solar PV for increased electricity
This study presents a techno-economic feasibility analysis of solar PV system integration with conceptualized Pumped Hydro Storage (PHS) and electric batteries for Burkina Faso. The study explores two cases (a) an off-grid PV with a storage system for rural areas and (b) a grid-connected PV system for an urban location.
Improving the performance of PV/diesel microgrids via integration
This study investigated three scenarios based on the existing microgrid''s characteristics: conventional standalone diesel generators, PV/diesel without battery storage and PV/diesel with a battery storage system which are the main technologies used for off-grid rural electrification in Burkina Faso.
A Bottom‐Up Approach to PV System Design for Rural Locality
This work evaluates the performance of optimal hybrid PV/battery and PV/diesel generator renewable energy systems for a remote village in Burkina Faso. Based on socioeconomic data and the household sample survey, a technoeconomic simulation and optimization model of electrical loading are presented.
Environmental impacts of a stand-alone photovoltaic system in
This work aims to determine the Energy Payback Time (EPBT) of a 33.7 MWp grid-connected photovoltaic (PV) power plant in Zagtouli (Burkina Faso) and assess its environmental impacts using the
