Small-scale solar power generation systems in Saudi Arabia

In line with the Saudi Electricity Company’s commitment to the objectives of the Kingdom’s Vision 2030 on renewable and sustainable energy, supporting the national economy, and conserving natural resources, and in response to the bylaw that governs the integration of small-scale solar power systems into the national distribution grid, as per the Saudi Electricity Regulatory Authority’s Administrative Decree No. (2/47/41) dated December 26th, 2019, the Small Scale Solar Power Systems services have now been launched.

Sri Lanka Street Solar Panel solar Power Generation

The Ministry of Power and State Minister of Solar, Wind and Hydro Power Generation Projects Development has launched a community based power generation project titled 'Soorya Bala Sangramaya' (Battle for Solar Energy) in collaboration with Sri Lanka Sustainable Energy Authority (SLSEA), Ceylon Electricity Board (CEB) and Lanka Electricity Company (Private) Limited (LECO) to promote the setting up of small solar power plants on the rooftops of households, religious places, hotels, commercial establishments and industries.

Solar light sensing system

The system is based on the combination of two approaches to precisely track the sunlight: first, using multiple LDRs (light-dependent resistors) as photo sensors to track the position of the sun by balancing the resistivity using a proportional integral deprival (PID) controller, and the second approach using the time-based control for cloudy days when sunlight is diffused, getting the time GPS coordinates and time to calculate the accurate position of the sun by determining the azimuth and altitude angle.

The cost of solar panels

While the upfront costs of solar panels have dropped by over 70% in the past decade, a comprehensive lifecycle analysis includes several key components: initial purchase and installation ($15,000-$25,000 for an average home system), ongoing maintenance (roughly $300-500 annually), inverter replacement (typically needed once during the system’s lifetime), and eventual decommissioning costs.
