Electrification ratio in India by the end of 2014 was about 70%. This means that 30% of people/of the group does not have electricity. So I am designing small scale (focused one’s effort/increased/mainly studied) solar power plant with revolving mechanical arm which can be operated in small villages or in that areas were electrification is not possible. Some restrictions of electrification in these areas are the cost of (having different things working together as one unit) grid construction is (compared to other things) high, the limitation of energy useful things/valuable supplies and the population of the area is (compared to other things) small.   A small scale (focused one’s effort/increased/mainly studied) solar power plant with revolving mechanical arm and (related to energy from plants) energy can be a good choice to solve the electricity problem in these areas. This option is based on the (compared to other things) good possible strength of solar energy in some areas of India which is daily average strength is about 3-5 kWh per day. This presents a series of activities in developing a (focused one’s effort/increased/mainly studied) solar power plant which includes the idea-based design of the small-scale system with the ability (to hold or do something) of 10kW.   This project focused on the design & analysis of a small scale concentrated solar plant and revolving mechanical arm at solar receiver for integration into this planned solar unit. Mean irradiance levels at the focal spot of the solar receiver of 3 – 5 kWh per day and peak levels of 14 kWh per day were identified as major design challenges.

The object of research in the chapter is the solar power plant as the source of additional economically expedient power supply of the electrical energy consumer. The purpose of this research is to analyze the options for the layout of solar power plant, taking into account the solar energy potential of the district, the design features of the proposed location, the load curve of the consumer, and the cost of the generated electrical energy. The chapter presents the results of calculation and selection of the parameters of solar power plant elements on the roof of the consumer's production building. The chapter presents the results of research of the dependence of the cost of the electricity generated by the solar power plant on the number of installed panels, which in order to increase the realized solar energy potential of the district also allows adding photoelectric modules and accumulating devices in the layout of the operating station at tariff growth. The chapter presents the results of researching these areas, that are conducted by the authors and which are completely original.

Parabolic Trough

The paper discusses the design options for a concentrated solar power plant in Al-Khobar, Saudi Arabia. The specific conditions, in terms of weather and sun irradiance, are considered, including sand and dust, humidity, temperature and proximity to the sea. Different real-world experiences are then considered, to understand the best design to adapt to the specific conditions. Concentrated solar power solar tower with thermal energy storage such as Crescent Dunes, or concentrated solar power solar tower without thermal energy storage but boost by natural gas combustion such as Ivanpah are disregarded for the higher costs, the performances well below the design, and the extra difficulties for the specific location such as temperatures, humidity and sand/dust that suggest the use of an enclosed trough. Concentrated solar power parabolic trough without thermal energy storage such as Genesis or Mojave, of drastically reduced cost and much better performances, do not provide however the added value of thermal energy storage and dispatchability that can make interesting Concentrated solar power vs. alternatives such as wind and solar photovoltaic. Thus, the concentrated solar power parabolic trough with thermal energy storage of Solana, of intermediate costs and best performances, albeit slightly lower than the design values, is selected. This design will have to be modified to enclosed trough and adopt a Seawater, Once-trough condenser. Being the development peculiar, a small scale pilot plant is suggested before a full-scale development.

The Cost

This community service program aims to implement a Solar Power Plant (PLTS) to provide electrical energy in tourist areas called rice field tourism, in order to reduce the cost of purchasing electrical energy for managers. Besides, it is also a means of education for visitors to introduce green energy in the future. The design of PLTS is adjusted to the requirements of the load that will be served at the tourist attraction. Before carrying out development, the Team first conducted outreach to local residents to introduce technology in rural areas. After the rotating program for managing tourism objects, in this case BUMDes Johar Mandiri, was given training in the operation, maintenance / maintenance of the solar power generation system, so that after the program it was able to solve the troubleshooting that occurred both in the generation system, control and distribution system. The resulting capacity of the Solar Power Plant in this Sawah Tour is 3500 WP which is used to meet all lighting needs. With this program, managers can reduce costs by Rp. 3,000,000 / month for electricity needs.

The Impact

Cemara Island is a coastal tourism area that has not been electrified and this problem becomes an obstacle for local residents to use electrical energy services. The impact of the absence of facilities in the form of electrical installations is that coastal tourism activities are not optimal. These Photovoltaic technologies may convert solar energy into electrical energy through photovoltaic effects. For this reason, The Solar power plant can be the solution to the problems in Cemara Island. However, technical and economic analysis is needed. From the result of solar system design calculation, it was obtained the number of solar panel capacity is 8x150Wp, solar charge controller of 40A, 4 units of battery with 100Ah specifications, and 2000W of the inverter. By using Homer, it can be seen that the amount of power produced by solar panels is 1746kWh/year. With an initial investment of $3745, in the scenario of using interest at 6%, the net present cost is $6534, the cost of energy value is $1,06/kWh, and BEP occurring at 11th year. Then in the scenario without using interest, the net present cost value is $8848, the value of cost of energy is $0.755/kWh and BEP occurring at 25th year.
