Operational Cost reduction of PV-PHS systems in farmhouses: Modelling, Design, and Experimental validation

open access: yesIOP Conference Series: Earth and Environmental Science, 2019
Abstract This paper proposes a PV-PHS system designed for farmhouses to reduce electricity costs. This study uses existing irrigation systems to store surplus energy coming from PVs in the form of gravitation potential energy. The storage is a type of pumped hydro storage (PHS) system using a water well as the lower reservoir.
