Abstract:
Abstract— in this paper we will examine the impacts of replacing the installed mono-facial PV solar modules with bifacial solar panels in the Patient Friends Benevolent Society (PFBS) hospital in Gaza city as a partial green solution to the shortage of generated energy in the Gaza Strip. The PFBS was recently retrofitted by about 40.96kWp Building Applied Photovoltaic (BAPV) system as a hybrid AC-coupled SPV with battery backup. The SPV system is in operation since April 2017. Using the mono-facial traditional modules, the aggregate PV system is expected to generate a total of approximately 160kWh per day contributing to major reductions in diesel fuel consumption and Green House Gas (GHG) emissions. Using the bifacial modules taking into consideration a high ALBEDO factor and the height of the lowest point of the module from the concrete ceiling, it was calculated that the bifacial energy gain (BEG) was increased by almost 43% while the bifacial power gain (BPG) was increased by about 28% for the same roof top installation area and steel structure. Accordingly, the installed bifacial capacity shall be about 52.3kWp and the expected generated energy shall be approximately 230kWh per day contributing to higher reductions in diesel fuel consumption and Green House Gas (GHG) emissions. An additional balance of system (BOS) shall be required to accommodate the extra power generated from the bifacial SPV system.
