English Abstract
Jordan is a developing country that depends on imported fuel and natural gas which has been recently discovered in the northeast area of the country.
In addition to increasing the rate of energy consumption in Jordan.
The long-term security requirement of Jordan is to reduce the dependence on imported oil and natural gas and move towards the use of renewable energy sources.
Solar photovoltaic (PV) energy is becoming an increasingly important part of the world’s renewable energy.
The objective of this thesis is to evaluate the pre-feasibility of a gridconnected PV system in Al-Karak governmental hospital, by considering the wellbeing of the technical, economical and environmental aspects of the project.
Data on solar radiation, sunshine duration, the ambient temperature and wind speed has been studied and analyzed to form an input data for evaluation and analysis of a proposed 2.4MW grid-connected PV system’s electricity production and economic feasibility.
It was found that the average daily sun radiation is approximately 5.15kWh/m2, and daily averages values of sunshine-hour of 9.9 hours per day.
The calculations of the system design and sizing were done using two methods, i.e.
manual calculations and software program.
The theoretical calculated energy production is 5572 MWh/year and the total number of modules is 7436 modules, every 24 modules are connected in series resulting in 310 strings.
While the energy production using PVSYST software is 4881 MWh/year and the needed number of modules is 8228 modules, every 17 modules are connected in series resulting in 484 strings.
The electrical power needs to cover the total power consumption for Al- Karak governmental hospital, the component design and cost of PV system required to supply the required energy were calculated.
The results showed that the payback period for the suggested grid-connected PV system is 4.7 years and the total investment cost is 2,300,400JOD.
The results also showed that an average of 2292.635 tons of greenhouse gases can be avoided annually utilizing the proposed system for electricity generation.
