“…(b) The numerical modeling has led to a complete characterization of the investigated photovoltaic structure through clear defined performance indicators, which highlight its irrigation potential. The results obtained by simulations are consistent with different models developed in specialized literature [1,[7][8][9][10][17][18][19][20]. (c) A case study has been proposed for the implementation of the advanced pumping system at the Alexandria site (in southern Romania), which have been assessed through the essential meteorological parameters (solar irradiance and ambient temperature), which dictated the irrigation potential for this case study.…”

“…The mathematical model of the photovoltaic pumping system is considered by the characterization of all its components [16][17][18][19][20][21]. A correlation between the electrical parameters (specific parameters of the PV panels, motor and inverter, the supplied energy by the structure, as well as respectively the PV system power) and the non-electric ones (flow rate and pumping height) taking into account the main meteorological data (solar irradiance and temperature) is established.…”

“…The ratio low voltage/medium voltage transformer (LV/MV) is characterized by its nominal power, copper and core losses. The conversion efficiency of this transformer, η trans f ormer , is calculated as a ratio between the output power P out and the input power P AC , [19]: η trans f ormer = P out P AC = P out P out + P Core + P Cu (5) where P Core represents the core losses, and P Cu represents copper losses.…”

The authors studied a working off-grid type photovoltaic (PV) pumping system for irrigation use. The methodology was based on digitalization analysis and numerical modeling as a preliminary stage. A mathematical model of the PV pumping installation considered the determination of the characteristic equations for all its components. These have been used together with the SISIFO simulation software to achieve the performances of the mechanical and electrical components of an advanced PV pumping system. Its global performance features, namely the monthly energy yield, monthly pumping yield, and monthly total performances (energy and flow rate) were introduced. Digital platform (DP) for PV systems characterized by three advanced technologies—machine learning (ML), digital twin (DT) and artificial intelligence (AI) was developed. The simulation results were discussed for a specific case study conducted for a location in the Southern Romania regarding the irrigation potential, taking into account the main meteorological parameters: solar irradiance and ambient temperature, related to the site. The AI approach was implemented to achieve an optimum operation of the PV pumping system by the use of the maximum power point tracking (MPPT) method and the MATLAB/Simulink software. A unified development of all the components of the PV pumping system using the SISIFO simulation software was established by the authors, with major implications in the development of solar PV installations on large-scale.

“…This study reports the application of photovoltaic cell technology. It is reliable and economically efficient for water supply and pumping systems in rural, urban, and remote regions (Sharma et al 2020;Shepovalova et al 2020). Additionally, photovoltaic water pumping reduces CO 2 emissions all over its 25 years of life (Chahartaghi & Nikzad 2021).…”

Treated wastewaters are an important alternative water supply for communities in dry climates all over the world. This study investigates using waste stabilization ponds (WSPs) to treat wastewater and the design of a solar photovoltaic pumping system to transfer the water to an Oasis in the Moroccan desert. The Oasis is currently about 5 ha in size and is irrigated with 24 m3/day of underground water. The wastewater is subjected to physicochemical and bacteriological analyses, also monitoring of operation, maintenance and loading rates of the WSPs for 12 months. To build a solar water pumping system, data on the system's components as well as local climatic data are obtained. The design optimization is done by simulation software PVsyst. WSPs provide reduced rates of BOD and fecal coliforms of 95 and 99%, respectively, with an average effluent concentration of 20 mg/l and 195 CFU. The exploitation of solar energy for pumping 24 m3/day requires five panels with a unit nominal power of 440 W for each panel and 2200 W for the entire system. This allows us to save about 1,500 kg of CO2 emissions per year, protect the region's fragile water resources and ensure the sustainability of the Oasis.

“…Therefore, the autonomous pumping system for irrigation stands out for being applied in small to large scales of energy production, revealing itself as a favorable environmental alternative with reduced initial installation values as it does not require a battery bank. that it is an attractive alternative for irrigation and drinking water supply in urban and rural regions of countries with enormous potential for solar energy where a considerable part of the rural population lives in remote areas (Shepovalova et al 2020).…”

This work aimed to evaluate a microsprinkler irrigation system using photovoltaic energy without energy storage. The influence of photovoltaic pumping on irrigation was evaluated from the Emission Uniformity, Shewhart control charts and Process Capacity. The experiment consisted of two amorphous photovoltaic panels connected in parallel, directly connected to a water pump, where the flow of the pumping system was carried out through a ½” tube (main line), to the irrigation system composed of four microsprinklers. The voltage and current parameters were collected, and the power of the photovoltaic system was calculated, while for the irrigation system the pressures of the four microsprinklers were measured to later calculate the flow rate of the irrigation system. The experiment was conducted at the State University of Western Paraná, UNIOESTE, where 25 days of collection were carried out, in the open, at four different times, from 10:00 am to 11:00 am, from 11:05 am to 12:05 pm, from 2:00 pm to 3:00 pm and from 3:05 pm to 4:05 pm . Power generation presented a low coefficient of variation throughout the day, which resulted in flow and pressure stability, culminating in an Emission Uniformity (UE) value qualified as excellent (93.66%) according to the ASAE. The values of energy generation, flow, pressure, and emission uniformity presented a Process Capacity (CP) value above 1.33, defining the process as capable and adequate throughout the analyzed period.
