Design and economy of renewable energy sources to supply isolated loads at rural and remote areas of Egypt

A. Gado, A.A. El-Zeftawy · 2009 · IET Conference Publications

Summary. This paper develops a model to design and evaluate renewable energy systems for isolated rural loads in Egypt, focusing on solar photovoltaic and wind energy for irrigation pumping. The model incorporates meteorological data, system performance, storage capacity, and economic parameters to compare three alternative configurations. Applied to a remote Egyptian site, the model identifies the most economically viable renewable energy option for rural electrification.
