Large-Scale Hybrid PV-Grid Irrigation System

33rd European Photovoltaic Solar Energy Conference and Exhibition; 2266-2269 This paper describes a 120 kWp hybrid PV-grid irrigation system at constant pressure, which has been installed in a 233 ha farm devoted to the intensive cultivation of olive trees in Tamelelt, Morocco. The description includes important information regarding system configuration, working control and implementation. In addition, monitoring data between July 18 and August 31, 2017, is analyzed and first results presented. The system has been working according to the initial expectations since July 2016 and in the 45 days currently under analysis, the number of irrigation hours were 251, being 71% the PV penetration. The PR of the system is 0,33, while the PR during irrigation hours increases to 0,69.
