Remote Monitoring of on-grid PV systems

This work focuses on identifying factors that negatively impact the performance of photovoltaic (PV) systems in Jordan and designing a monitoring system to address these issues. The monitoring system continuously collects data from the PV system, analyzes it, and alerts the owner or installer of any inverter issues via SMS and dial calls. The system uses an SCT013 electrical current sensor, Arduino UNO, real-time clock board, and SIM808 GSM GPRS GPS Module to monitor the RMS current and send alerts if it drops below a specified threshold. The system was tested on an electric load and was able to generate alarms when the load was turned off.​

Techno-Economic study of large PV system in Jordan

This area relies on RE growth. Utility-scale solar photovoltaic (PV) panels are one of the cheapest energy sources. PV cell production has increased, lowering photovoltaic system costs. This paper examines the technical and economic viability of a 1 MWp solar photovoltaic (PV) farm in Amman City, Jordan. This study used technical and economic performance indicators and PVSyst Software to simulate market conditions, materials like solar panels and power inverters, build-on-systems (BOS), and cost factors in creating a large-scale PV utility. 1 MWp systems cost (400) kJOD. The economic study showed long-term financial benefits for the solar power farm. The payback period PBP is (2.23) years, the internal rate of return IRR is (36%), the net present value NPV is (2,816) kJOD, and the levelized cost of energy LCOE is (0.02) JOD is all for the solar PV farm. The PV farm will avoid 20470.4 tons of CO2 over its lifespan.
