Multi-User Solar Hybrid Micro-Grid Technologies can Overcome Energy Poverty in Palestinian Villages

Imad Ibrik

This paper presents a programme of rural electrification with PV hybrid micro-grids for remote villages in Palestine, dealing with all the issues as techno-economical, the creation of the legal framework and the operation and maintenance. The relevance of this programme is the high level of sustainability and the approach that integrates all the aspects (social, economic, technical) and involving local stakeholders as the community itself, the universities, the electrical utilities and the local authorities. Users generally get organized around the local committee which is in charge of the fee collection, the O&M, etc. The power plants have been monitored and hourly operational and performance data is available for the technical monitoring of the energy flows: solar radiation, PV generation, battery voltage, output energy, etc. Additionally, several social and economic assessments have demonstrated the immediacy of the benefits and the added value of the action.
