Photovoltaic solar energy is the energy produced through photovoltaic
cells, which convert the sunlight directly into electric energy.
Why photovoltaic energy?
Because all human activities depend on electric energy;
It is necessary to have an unconventional energy, renewable,
easily accessed and without high costs;
The required primary energy of humanity in 2006 was 1.0 × 1014
kWh/year. The Sun provides approximately 1.1 × 1018kWh, so
13.000 more times than needed;
In our city the idea of setting up a photovoltaic central, dates
since November 2009. Then it was approved the construction
project of a photovoltaic plant with a power of 2.9946 MW;
The installations will occupy 3.6 hectares of land;
The works began in May 2013;
The bottom table shows the characteristics of the future plant.

Yet, in our city we have photovoltaic panels on:
1. Private constructions,
2. Public institutions (schools, kindergartens, polyvalent hall) etc.

THE ADVANTAGES OF PHOTOVOLTAIC PLANTS
Long life time and functioning, approximately 25
years;
Are depreciated over time, amortization period
depends on the technology used;
Low running costs: The photovoltaic elements use
sunlight-free fuel;
Ecological: do not consume fossil fuel, so do not
pollute the environment;
Inexhaustible source;
Technology without noise pollution.

Water power plant
η =0.85(85%)
ρ=103 kg/m3
Q=150m3/s
g=9.81m/s2
h=100m
P= η * Q *ρ *g*h
P=0.85*150 m3/s *103kg/m3
*9.81 m/s2*102
m=125.0775·106 w
P=125·106w - power of a 1
Francis turbine
Ptotal=2·125 ·106w = 250·106w
Photovoltaic panel - the power
of solar radiation (in a sunny day)
at the surface of the photovoltaic
panel angled to 30 degrees it is
1000 W/m2. A voltaic park /
photovoltaic plant of 10 km2 will
have the power:
Pf =1000 W/m2 *107 m2= 1010 w
Conclusion:
Pf/ Ptotal=1010 w/ 250·106w = 40
Photovoltaic plant provides 40
times more electric power than
hydro plant for 10 km2.

W=P*t
The energy W water power plant per year:
250*106w* 365 days*24 hours=219*106 kwh
The energy W photovoltaic plant per year: 1010
w* 365 days*24 hours= 8760 *106 kwh

The water power plant Stejaru (15 km of our city) it is
powered by the waters of the biggest artificial lake arranged
on the inland rivers.
C h a r a c t e r i s t i cs : Stejaru central is semi air type and
includes six generating groups of Czech manufacturing, with
Francis turbines with vertical shaft: four turbines with a
power of 27.50 MW and two turbines of 50 MW.

10 km2 = 1000 hectares
The medium production of wheat on hectare is 3.46 tones
=> for 10 km2 we have 3460 tones
The medium production of corn for one hectare is 3.86
tones => for 10 km2 we have 3860 tones
The medium production of potatoes is 15.12 tones => for
10 km2 is 15120 tones
