Optimal Sizing of Output Energy of PV Power Plants under Extreme Climate Conditions: Case of Sudanian Sahel
Boubacar SORO, Amadou DIALLO, Serge Dimitri Y. B. BAZYOMO, Adama OUEDRAOGO, Seyni SALACK; Dieudonné Joseph BATHIEBO, Sié KAM
The present work analyzes the energy production of three 50kWp photovoltaic (PV) power plants which are placed in three climate zones. The Sudano-Sahelian and Sudanian climates have lower average temperatures than the Sahelian environment. The Sudanian climate, next the Sudano-Sahelian zone, and finally the Sahelian region, have the best perfo(...)
