THERMAL ENERGY PRODUCTION OF SOLAR PANELS FOR KARABAKH "GREEN" ENERGY ZONE

Abstract

The analysis of the prospects for the efficient use of renewable energy sources is relevant from the point of view of the implementation of the order on the transformation of the Karabakh region of Azerbaijan into a "green" energy zone. The article is devoted to the application of solar panels for climatic parameters of the Gubadli region of Karabakh and the assessment of thermal energy production capacity through a calculation program. The number of Hevelius SCM-12-180-58 (made in Poland) tubular panels located in an area of 50 m2 in the Gubadli region is 12, performance coefficient is 70%, the heat loss coefficient of vacuum pipes is 0.5 W/m2, the average amount of thermal energy obtained by solar radiation is 1625 kW/m2 and the total heat production is 14837 kW/h per year. The methodology can be applied to any region.
