Application of MOPSO to the Optimisation of an Off-Grid Photovoltaic System in a Rural Fruit Farm

Mohamed Mahmoud Samy, Shimaa Barakat · 2022 · Journal of Engineering Science and Sustainable Industrial Technology

Summary. Researchers optimized an off-grid solar power system for a 60-acre fruit farm in Egypt using multi-objective algorithms. The study determined the ideal number of solar panels and battery banks to minimize total costs while ensuring reliable power supply. Results show the system's net present cost, cost per kilowatt-hour, and energy surplus levels, enabling profitable renewable energy adoption for agricultural operations.
