Estimating and Comparing the Exergetic Solar Radiation Values of Various Climate Regions for Solar Energy Utilization

Abstract: Energy resources and their utilization intimately relate to sustainable development. In attaining sustainable development, increasing the energy efficiencies of processes utilizing sustainable energy resources plays an important role. The utilization of renewable energy offers a wide range of exceptional benefits. There is also a link between exergy and sustainable development. Exergy analysis has been widely used in the design, simulation, and performance evaluation of various energy systems as well as renewa… Show more

“…It should be noted that in the study of ( Alta et al., 2010 ) and ( Arslanoglu, 2016 ) both performed for Turkey, this ratio was found to be 0.93. Also in study of ( Hepbasli and Alsuhaibani, 2014 ) the mean annual exergy to energy ratio for northeastern Saudi Arabia and Izmir in Turkey were obtained 0.933 and 0.935 according to Petela's approach, respectively and 0.950 and 0.951 according to Jefer's approach, respectively. The discrepancies are due to differences associated with the atmospheric and climatic conditions of the mentioned stations compared with those of Iran.…”

“…This policy can also save the quantity of fossil fuels (oil and natural gas) available for export, the main source of the Saudi Arabia’s income for its economic development (Cinti, 2011). Solar energy can also be used for desalination projects in Saudi Arabia saving around 1.5 million barrels of oil per day which can reduce the parallel effects of oil price hikes (Hepbasli and Alsuhaibani, 2014). A solar plant with a capacity of 20 MW generates about 200–300 GWh/year, with estimated power plant area of 1.25 km 2 .…”
