Providing electric power to remote, cold regions at high latitude
or altitude can be an expensive and technically challenging task.
Photovoltaics (PV) provide a reliable and cost-effective solution
yet their potential is underdeveloped, in part because of a lack of
knowledge about their effectiveness in cold climates. This book
illustrates the potential and the techniques for using PV in cold
climates. The book starts with a general section illustrating how
PV can be applied in cold climates, with a succinct overview of the
main considerations and chapters covering both the solar resource
and the economics. It then covers the effects of cold climates on
PV systems looking at the issues around the array and electronics,
the battery and energy management. The third section covers design
considerations and possible configurations (stand alone/battery
systems, hybrid systems, seasonal storage and system simulation).
The next part covers installation and operation and the book
concludes with several case studies. The book will be invaluable
both for all managers charged with providing power to cold climates
whether for dwellings, other buildings or technical installations
and for all technicians, engineers, installers and researchers
working on such installations. It will also be of great interest to
those working with PV in any form, or interested to see PV
technology reach its full potential.
