Popis: | [EN] This work presents the conversion of a photovoltaic water pumping system (PVWPS) to its corresponding battery-based solution, while maintaining the components of the PVWPS facility and adding the power converter needed to manage the operation of a lithium-ion battery. A complete analysis of the direct PVWPS is performed based on the values obtained by the monitoring system developed for the installation. The efficiencies and performance ratios of the various elements of the facility are calculated, as well as other relevant factors (such as irradiance thresholds). The dependence of some variables on the solar resource is analyzed to model the system. A similar study is carried out in the battery-based solution and a comparative analysis of the two modes of operation is then performed to find which aspects could be improved in the battery-based solution to increase the pumping time and total daily pumped volume. The results presented demonstrate the benefits of including a battery (reduction in start/stop cycles and improved performance on cloudy days). Aspects that can be improved to make the battery-based solution more efficient and achieve better results are suggested. This work was supported in part by the Universitat Politecnica de Valencia (UPV-Program ADSIDEO-cooperation 2017-Project Characterization of sustainable systems for the pumping of water for human consumption in developing regions or refugee camps in Kenya through the implementation of isolated photovoltaic systems with new generation lithium-ion batteries), and in part by the International Organization for Migration under Contract entitled "Design, Assembly, Testing and Documenting Parameters of Solar and Ion-Lithium Energy Storage Equipment for Powering of Water Pumps under Laboratory Conditions'' from the Bureau for Humanitarian Assistance-USAID. |
