    Study and sizing of photovoltaic pumping station intended for the irrigation of an isolated agricultural farm
    (Hamza Sahraoui, 2024) REZLI, ALI; FETHI, MAKHLOUF SOFIANE
    his thesis delves into the study and sizing of a photovoltaic pumping station tailored for the irrigation needs of an isolated agricultural farm. The investigation begins with an analysis of energy requirements for irrigation and the potential advantages of harnessing solar energy for water pumping. Various components of the photovoltaic pumping system, including solar panels, inverters, and pumps, are scrutinized and selected based on their efficiency and suitability for the agricultural setting. In addition, the study highlights the integration of Arduino Mega, powered by photovoltaic energy, into the system to regulate and control the pumping operations efficiently. This innovative approach enhances the automation and optimization of the irrigation process, contributing to improved water management and energy utilization on the farm. Furthermore, a comprehensive sizing methodology is developed to determine the optimal configuration of the photovoltaic pumping station, taking into account factors such as water demand, solar irradiation, pump characteristics, and system losses. Practical considerations such as installation, maintenance, and monitoring of the system are also addressed, along with potential challenges and solutions during implementation. Overall, this thesis offers valuable insights into the study and sizing of photovoltaic pumping stations for agricultural applications, showcasing the integration of innovative technologies like Arduino Mega powered by photovoltaic energy to create efficient and sustainable irrigation systems for isolated agricultural farms
