Popis: Rapid grows of solar energy systems in recent years makes the application of photovoltaic panels as energy source a prominent option. This is due to its sustainability, decreasing cost, very low pollution of the atmosphere. Pioneering research in the field that makes it the fastest growing energy source in the world. In Iran there is a lot of potential places for use of solar energy. On the other hand, a lot of these places are far from power grid and for their power they depend on diesel generators. In this paper we evaluated the implementation of solar energy with proposing a photovoltaic (PV) system. A case study was done on a small village in Bushehr province, Iran to assess alternative energy sources in comparison with solar energy. The two other options for power source beside solar panels which was considered in this paper is connecting the village to the power grid with a distribution line or installing diesel generators to power the village. It has been shown that the solar power can compete with its old rivals.
