Abstract

Today, using systems based on renewable resources is a suitable alternative to fossil fuels. However, due to problems such as the lack of access in all the times needed to supply cargo and high-investment cost, it has not been well-received. Therefore, in this research, the modeling of the photovoltaic system with battery storage has been done to supply the required load, and various scenarios have been evaluated in terms of economic parameters and reliability indicators of the studied system for a better understanding of the comparison indicators. It has been evaluated from two modes, one connected to the network and one disconnected from the network. One of the important results is the supply of 56% of the load by the photovoltaic cell in the presence of the grid, which, in this scenario, the electrical load is supplied by the photovoltaic cell and the grid is 164.155 kWh/yr and 128.504 kWh/yr, respectively.
