Get a quoteThis study investigates the viability of deploying solar PV/fuel cell hybrid system to power telecom base stations in Ghana. Furthermore, the study tests the proposed power system resilience by comparing its technical, economic, and environmental performance to PV/diesel and diesel power systems.
Presently in Ghana, base stations located in remote communities, islands, and hilly sites isolated from the utility grid mainly depend on diesel generators for their source of power. This study presents an analysis on deploying a PV/fuel hybrid system as a possible substitute for existing diesel power systems and even grid-connected base stations.
This study has investigated the possibility of deploying a solar PV/Fuel cell hybrid system to power a remote telecom base station in Ghana. The study aims to lower the levelized cost of electricity (LCOE) and reduce greenhouse gas emissions produced from the hybrid power system.
These suppliers and installers have been granted a permit from the Energy Commission of Ghana to supply and install PV systems. Per the data obtained in , the average cost of PV panels with accessories was estimated at 745 USD/kW. A 10% margin for installation was added, increasing PV capital cost to 820 USD/kW.
Previous studies have developed models that produce reliable predictions in a deterministic or probabilistic framework. To the best of our knowledge, no study on solar power forecasting has been conducted in Ghana.
BPA plans to add over 250 MWp of solar energy to Ghana's national grid. The first phase of the 250 MWp is a 50 MWp solar project which commenced in April 2019 and became operational in 2020 . The solar power generated by BPA is sold to the Ghanaian grid operator, GRIDCo, and other customers through bilateral contracts.
