Could Libya be a solar energy exporter?

The desert technology (DESRT-TEC) is one of the largest projects; there was proposed that Libya would be one of the exporters of solar power generated from solar energy to Europe (Griffiths, 2013). The aims of that project to provide Europe Union countries with energy generated from the sun in North Africa and the Middle East countries.

Can Libya develop solar photovoltaics?

Libya has a great opportunity to build large-scale solar photovoltaic power. For the scholars, it's considered as an entrant, which can help to develops and adopt this technology. This paper will be valuable as it is a one-step approach for the development of solar photovoltaics application in Libya.

Who is SunPower-Gen?

In 2001, SunPower-Gen was established to serve Engineering sectors. Today, we design, manufacture, and install most of the engineered products and systems for our clients. We have been serving the industries for over 49 years with a commitment to providing excellent Products and Services.

Are solar PV systems a good investment in Libya?

In Libya, the solar photovoltaic (PV) systems are encouraging for the future, due to incident solar radiation is greater than the minimum required rate across the country (Hewedy et al., 2017). Based on that from a techno-economics point-view, there is a need to develop substantial energy resource solutions.

Are grid-connected photovoltaics a good investment in the Libyan power system?

For those interested in the large dynamic of photovoltaics economics, a thorough analysis of grid-connected photovoltaics in the Libyan power system would be very beneficial as most firms will raise their profits and lower their costs (Almaktar et al., 2020), and described by (Almaktar and Shaaban, 2021).

Why is solar energy important in Libya?

Due to Libya's geographic location on the cancer orbit line with exposure to the sun's rays during the year and with long hours throughout the day, solar energy may be considered to be one of the main resources (Bannani et al., 2006).
