Hydro Pump Storage System Driven by PV System for Peak Demand
Authors: , ,
Abstract: Nowadays there are increasing demands for the electricity also the rapid improvement in the technology and urbanization that increases energy consumption daily, in the other hand there are many research to find an optimal and economical storage system for the renewable energy that can reduce the demand on the fossil fuel , also reduce the emission and save the environment in this report we review some applications and methods related to the Integrated between the photovoltaic system with pumped hydro storage system the first application in the residential building , the second one in the arid area and the third one in the farms above methods or applications used to minimize cost and reduce emission by reduce dependency on fossil fuel, that’s occur by use the system contains of Photovoltaic (PV) system with pumped hydro storage ,the major components of the systems used are PV panels, upper reservoir and lower reservoir, control center or inverter, pump, turbine and connected to public grid or diesel generator the results of the above methods show that the integration between photovoltaic system and pumped hydro system is applicable and sufficient ,the proposed hybrid systems can assist in reducing operation cost, reduce in consuming fossil fuel and make cost saving by an average of 50%.
