Abstract

The problem of power outages is still present in most cities of Iraq as a result of the wars and crises experienced by Iraq and this makes it difficult to provide continuous electric power to the electrical devices. All telecommunications companies, including Zain, Asia cell, etc in Iraq used diesel generators as an alternative source to the national electricity grid, but this will adversely affect the environment and humans as a result of toxic emissions associated with the use of these generators. In this paper, a stand-alone PVsystem was designed and simulated to supply a base transceiver station (BTS) in Iraq. A BTS in Jadriyah, Baghdad with 4.177 kW load power belong to Zain Telecommunication Company was taken as a case study in this paper. The meteorological data of the Jadriyah region were taken from a weather station belong to the ministry of Sciences and Technology in Iraq for the year 2017. The simulation for this BTS was carried out using the Pvsyst simulation program. The financial analysis of the proposed system shows that it has small kWh unit price (0.108 $/kWh).

伊拉克BTS供电单机光伏系统设计与仿真

由于伊拉克经历的战争和危机，伊拉克大多数城市仍然存在停电问题，这使得难以为电力设备提供持续的电力。伊拉克的所有电信公司，包括Zain、Asia cell等，都使用柴油发电机作为国家电网的替代来源，但这将对环境和人类产生不利影响，因为使用这些发电机会产生有毒排放物。本文设计并仿真了一个独立的pv系统，为伊拉克的基站收发信台(BTS)供电。本文以Zain电信公司在巴格达Jadriyah的一个负荷功率为4.177 kW的BTS为例进行了研究。贾德里亚地区2017年的气象数据来自伊拉克科技部的一个气象站。利用Pvsyst仿真程序对该防弹少年团进行了仿真。财务分析表明，该系统具有较低的千瓦时单价(0.108美元/千瓦时)。
