This work deals with the need and possibility of building car parks in Bucharest above Dâmbovița River. They included analyses referring to the evolution of the number of existing vehicles in Bucharest, an analysis of the number of vehicles in Bucharest, as compared to other European capitals, and also certain elements leading to the possibility and profitability of building a car park above Dâmbovița River. As a result of impact studies and research on overland parking over the Dambovita river, it was concluded that the most popular solution of respondents would be a parking equipped with a smart boarding system, built on a round platform and metal frame. A photovoltaic-panel installation can be used in parallel to supply electricity with renewable energy(sunlight). The protection of the structures exposed to the risk of earthquake is based on the three fundamental operational modes: insulation, connection, dissipation of energy The parking is protected against earthquake using the method of design/consolidation by insulating the base.

This paper presents the modeling and simulation of a hybrid renewable-energy system. The sizing, availability, and contribution of solar photovoltaic, wind energy and hydro energy can be simulated to determine the viability, stability, and cost effectiveness of such systems. The model allows the user to enter site specific data (hourly, daily, monthly, and annually) such as solar radiation, wind speed and precipitation. Users can select the type and size of wind turbine, hydroelectric turbine, photovoltaic panel and the electrical load placed on the hybrid renewable system. The simulation will determine the total power that can be produced on an hourly, daily, monthly and annual basis, the optimum combination of renewable energies, and usage/storage of each type of renewable energies, given the specified system and the collected data. With the help of HyRES, the model, one can determine which hybrid renewable energy system would best suit a specific site, and also help to determine which type of wind turbine, hydroelectric turbine, or photovoltaic panels would best complement each other for that site.

It is becoming increasingly important to include information about power generation from renewable energy sources in the training of electrical engineers. Solar energy is arguably the most common renewable energy source in use today. Providing practical hands-on training on solar energy power generation today requires the use of photovoltaic panel devices which are used for transforming solar energy into electrical energy. In many developing countries, practical hands-on training on solar power generation is limited due to the cost of photovoltaic panel devices and so the training consists of theoretical and tutorial classes sometimes supported by remote and virtual laboratories. This paper presents an augmented virtuality tool where real-time information from a mobile device’s sensors is used directly within a virtual or computer generated environment. The tool provides a practical context for hands-on tutorial exercises on solar energy power generation.

The necessity of fault detection and notification has been exploited by the growth of renewable energy systems. The application of fault detection and notification is seen as an effective tool to monitor the performance of renewable energy systems. Looking at the importance of fault detection and notification integration into renewable energy systems based on the conducted literature review, this paper presents fault notification mechanism and implementation, which also consist of detection in an IoT-based photovoltaic panel monitoring and analysis system. The implemented fault notification detects the abnormalities of the voltage-current-temperature in the IoT-based photovoltaic panel monitoring and analysis system. The implemented fault notification in the IoT-based photovoltaic panel monitoring and analysis detects and notify any sort of abnormality of the voltage-current-temperature that is recorded at the photovoltaic panel. The implemented fault notification operates based on the threshold values of the voltage-current-temperature that has been programmed in the centralised controller. Hence, when any parameter input is below the preset threshold value, an email notification is sent to the centralised system to notify the maintenance team. Based on the implementation and obtained results, the implemented fault notification in the developed IoT-based photovoltaic panel monitoring and analysis system successfully performed and validated the purpose of the implementation.

Previous studies have highlighted that fossil fuel accounted for the largest share of total energy consumption in worldwide if compared to renewable energy. However, it has many disadvantages such as emission of carbon dioxide gas, contributes to global warming, creates pollution, contributes to acid rain and unsafe. Nowadays, many solar power plants have been built in order to replace fossil fuel. Solar energy has bright future due to some advantages such as pollution free, cheap renewable energy, easy install solar cell panel and less maintenance. Solar photovoltaic development has remarkably grown since the early 2000s. Because an average panel lifetime is 30 years, 17,000 tonnes of solar panel wastes are anticipated in the year 2030 in Malaysia. As the solar photovoltaic market increases, so will the volume of decommissioned photovoltaic panels. Growing photovoltaic panel waste represents a new environmental challenge, but also miraculous opportunities to create value and pursue new solar photovoltaic end-of-life industries economic route.

This case study focuses on the operational performance of a Leadership in Energy & Environmental Design (LEED)-rated building with the application of Building Information Modeling (BIM) to evaluate its capacity to achieve Zero Net Energy (ZNE). Retrofit options for renewable energy implementation are examined in conjunction with scenarios of building operation. In this study, two different BIM processes have been conducted for the energy modeling: object-oriented geometric information modeling (e.g., envelope, doors, windows, walls, zones, etc.) with a BIM tool and energy modeling (e.g., materials, heat resistance, location, weather data, renewables, etc.) with an energy simulation tool. The simulation model is compared to the real building performance and alternative renewable energy scenarios are evaluated. The results are used to make recommendations for the optimization of building performance and consideration of energy-efficient strategies for building performance enhancement. The research points to discontinuities between photovoltaic panel degradation over time and the LEED credit.

The current century is characterized by an increasing use of renewable energy - wind farms, solar parks, bio fuels, etc. Climate change and rising prices of fossil fuels lead to increased investment in renewable energy. This raises the need to examine the impact of various factors on the efficiency of energy production from renewable energy sources. This is related to the development of adequate models and the implementation of appropriate computer systems to manage and control these processes. The present work presents the main aspects of the modelling of a building heating installation using renewable energy sources - a solar photovoltaic panel and a HHO gas generator. The additional energy needed to heat the building is provided by a pellet boiler. An energy balance of the studied building is made taking into account the external and internal temperatures and energy loss. The computer model was developed in order to build a system for process control in the building’s heating system.

The energy demand in remote area cannot be satisfied unless renewable energy based plants are locally installed. In order to be efficient, such projects should be sized on the basis of maximizing the renewable energies exploitation and meeting the consumer needs. The aim of this work is to provide an algorithm-based calculation of the optimum sizing of a standalone hybrid plant composed of a wind generator, a photovoltaic panel, a lead acid-battery bank, and a water tank. The strategy consists of evaluating the renewable potentials (solar and wind). Obtained results are entered as inputs to established generators models in order to estimate the renewable generations. The developed optimal sizing algorithm which is based on iterative approach, computes plant components sizes for which load profile meet estimated renewable generations. The approach validation is conducted for A PV/Wind/Battery based farm located in Sfax, Tunisia. Obtained results proved that the energetic need is covered and only about 4% of the generated energy is not used. Also a cost investigation confirmed that the plant becomes profitable ten years after installation.Article History: Received June 24th 2017; Received in revised form September 26th 2017; Accepted Sept 30th 2017; Available onlineCitation: Brahmi, N., Charfi, S., and Chaabene, M.

Keywords: Hydrogen, Solar, Hydrogen Production, Electrolysis, Photovoltaic Panel, Simulation Abstract. Hydrogen is regarded as the potential bearer of energy of the future. Solar hydrogen is the hydrogen produced using renewable energy, particularly solar energy [8,3]. The availability of water and hours of sunshine make Algeria a place of choice for solar hydrogen production. In this work, solar hydrogen production by electrolysis of water is considered. The required energy for water dissociation is supplied by a photovoltaic system. A design and operation study of a photovoltaic system has been done for three different regions in Algeria. The production potential is highly significant particularly in the south parts of this country.

The use of renewable energy and hydrogen technology is a sustainable solution for the intermittent feature of renewable energies. Hence, the aim of the present work is to design a self-sufficient system for a one-family house by coupling a solar photovoltaic array and an anion exchange membrane water electrolyzer (AEMWE). The first step is the selection of the photovoltaic panel by using PV-SYST 7.0 software. Then, the hydrogen production system is calculated by coupling the electrolyzer and photovoltaic panel current–potential curves. A fuel cell is selected to use the hydrogen produced when solar energy is not available. Finally, the hydrogen storage tank is also estimated to store hydrogen for a design basis of four consecutive cloudy days according to the hydrogen consumption of the fuel cell. The whole system is designed by a simple procedure for a specific location in Ciudad Real (Spain) for January, which is known as the coldest month of the year. The simple procedure described in this work could be used elsewhere and demonstrated that the hydrogen production at low scale is a suitable technology to use renewable energy for self-energy supporting in a residential application without any connection to the grid.
