Feasibility study for houses of worship saving money rather than paying for electricity in a site in Egypt

Abstract EN

With estimates of the remaining non-renewable energy stocks around the world, it is clear that the era of use Fossil fuel will run out, as high energy prices that affect economic growth worldwide and increase the burden so; we have no choices to devote public resources for developing energy-saving technologies.

And make pressing issue and International trends to replace the energy source of oil by an alternative energy source.

There are 5571 worship in south delta site that is churches and mosques belonging to the people and 10966 follow the Endowments Authority, that consume 154520 kWh every day or 154.5 MWh every day equivalent to 13286 kg fuel every day to be burnt equal to.5 % from total power consumption for this site.

On other hand all houses of worship congregations trying to balance their budget and be good stewards of creation, it makes sense to install energy efficiency upgrades and renewable energy systems.

Solar energy technology, which can contribute significantly to growth in the coming years, as well as explain how to make economic feasibility of this technology when working to replace the non-renewable energy sector by feeding it through solar energy.

There is still great potential for solar technology, and the growth of demand can contribute to the stability of existing jobs in this sector (covering the entire production chain, not just the quantum leap).

It can also increase sales rates in the future and provide consumer credit procedures to facilitate the purchase of the technology.

So, this paper discusses a commonly sized solar energy system, anticipated annual solar power produced for the worship, simple payback calculations, and a Life Cycle Cost Analysis (LCCA) for this system.

This study is intended to evaluate the overall project's economic viability in its intended location.

Also, this paper summarizes the estimated cost solar power with other sources of energy.

And the positive impact on reducing greenhouse gas emissions and reducing energy demand on the other hand.
