Question: Calculate the Solar Energy potential (GWh) that can be generated on Annual Basis if 50,000km2of the area of Jordan was covered with Solar PV modules.

 

List your assumptions:

  1. Solar PV estimated generation = 2GWh/MWp
  2. Each 1MWp will need = 10,000m2
  3. Cost of fossil fuel to generate electricity in Jordan = 1000 million JD/year
  4. Annual Electricity Generated in Jordan = 20,000 GWh

 

Required

 

  1. Calculate Solar Energy potential by Dividing the Electricity generated from PV over 50,000km2 / Annual Electricity Generated?

 

  1. You are going to Build a Solar PV Plant to cover the Annual Electricity Needs of Jordan

 

  1. What is the Size of the plant?

 

  1. Calculate Present Value (P), if the cost of the 1MWp = 500,000JD.

 

  1. If the cost of Generation of Electricity in Jordan is 0.10JD/KWh, what is the Simple Payback Period (SPP)?

 

  1. What is the annual electricity saving (A0) if the degradation is 1%?

 

  1. What is (A1) if the operation, maintenance and cleaning is 2% of initial cost?

 

  1. What is the Salvage (S) value if you can sell the system for 5% of cost?
