Designing a small Solar-City for a remote community in AL-BAHA in Saudi Arabia

Abstract

This project studies a designed solar system for a remote community in Al-Baha city, and measures its cost. It mainly applies two sources of electricity, PV Panels and Solar Thermal Power Station. Our results have indicated that 2,703,568.1 kW per a day would be much less expensive than the usual consumption in long terms. Moreover, this electrical system would protect the environment from the risk of the emission of fossil fuel, Climate change, and Global warming when such more environmentally-friendly sources of electricity are used. The simulation of the design has been done by using the software of PVsyst
