General Conclusion

This book has provided detailed explanations on the modeling, the sizing, the energy management, and the economic study sensitivity of autonomous PV irrigation installations destined for water pumping.

More precisely, first, the system elements models have been detailed and studied in depth. Some of them have been validated experimentally. Then, since the system components have been modeled, it was possible to establish an algorithm for the optimal sizing of the autonomous PV irrigation installation, which is composed of PVPs, a battery bank, an inverter, a water pump, and a reservoir. It has been demonstrated that the proposed algorithm ensures the availability of the required water for irrigation. Moreover, by ...
