Photovoltaic solar energy Division

Presentation

The division of Photovoltaic (PV) Solar Energy is research structure of the “Centre de Développement des Energies Renouvelables” was established in 1982. The division is responsible essentially for development of PV modules systems interconnected in serial/parallel, electronic devices for control and regulation (load regulator), conversion DC/AC systems (inverters) and electrochemical storage systems (battery). Among applications duly approved by the PV Solar Energy division, include:

  • PV connected to the grid stations.
  • Power conditioning systems.
  • Photovoltaic Modules.
  • Electrochemical storage and production of Hydrogen using PV.

Missions

  • Conduct research studies for PV solar energy conversion equipment development,
  • Solar Energy conversion Control,
  • Outdoor and indoor equipment test,
  • Design, production and adjustment of conversion equipment intended to PV applications,
  • Study and characterization of battery for solar use,
  • Modelling, simulation and experimentation of modules and PV generator,
  • Design, study and production of different PV systems intended for solar applications (water pumping, home and public lighting, etc.),
  • Test bench set up for equipment and PV applications,
  • Development of dimensioning and PV systems monitoring software,

Objectives

  • Undertake activities for design, production, development and experimentation of equipment intended for exploitation and conversion of solar energy to electrical power,
