Comparison of 40kWh photovoltaic container power generation in the catering industry and diesel power generation

What is a photovoltaic container?

This device is usually composed of a standard-sized container equipped with photovoltaic modules, photovoltaic inverters, photovoltaic controllers and batteries. The outer surface of the container is equipped with foldable photovoltaic panels, which can be folded up when not in use to reduce volume and weight for easy transportation and storage.

How do photovoltaic panels work?

The outer surface of the container is equipped with foldable photovoltaic panels, which can be folded up when not in use to reduce volume and weight for easy transportation and storage. When needed, the photovoltaic panels can be unfolded to capture solar energy and convert it into electrical energy.

What is the difference between PV size and WF capacity?

The PV size is half of the configuration (ii), while the WF capacity is reduced to almost zero. The algorithm converges on a configuration in which nighttime power is supplied by the TES storage, which remains large (111 MWh). On the contrary, the contribution of the EES is negligible.

Is multigeneration power plant performance under a load-following control strategy?

The model was designed to evaluate the multigeneration power plant performance under a load-following control strategy. The electric load data were derived from the Abu Dhabi Annual Technical Report, as adopted in a previous study . The annual demand (Figure 6) was scaled down to reach 10 MW peak load and an annual amount of 53.93 GWh.
