Techno-economic assessment of on-grid solar PV system
Solar Photo-voltaic (PV) systems are a good alternative and feasible solution for generating electricity in Palestine, especially for grid-connected systems. The potential of solar radiation is
Grid connected PV
Solar energy is the only secured and viable energy source in Palestine, because it is abundant, has a high potential and it cannot be controlled by Israel. This high solar energy potential is demonstrated in an annual average solar radiation of 5.4 kWh/m 2 -day and a sunshine duration amounting to about 3000 h/year [1], [2].
A Review of Solar Energy Prospects in Palestine
This review is based on introducing analyzed information about solar energy characteristics in Palestine, Applied solar systems and technology, the policies and legislation, and a recap of strengths, drawbacks, and recommendations.
Palestine Energy Policy for Photovoltaic Generation: Current
Palestine has some potential of renewable energy sources that could make a change for the whole situation. For instance, Palestine has an estimated annual average daily solar energy in the range of (5.4 kWh/m 2 –6 kWh/m 2) with sunshine hours over 3000 h per
Mapping of Solar Energy Potential in the West Bank, Palestine
Palestine has a high solar energy potential, receiving about 3,000 sunshine hours per year with a solar radiation of 8.27kwh/m 2 /day in the middle area, 7.51 in the southern area, 6.86 in the
Renewable energy potential in the State of Palestine: Proposals
The main focus of this study, which makes it the most thorough in its sector, is showcasing Palestine''s distinct renewable energy potentials (thermal solar, PV, wind, biomass, and hydropower). The System Advisor Model software (SAM) was used to predict the power potentials for a year.
Estimating the Optimum Tilt Angles for South-Facing Surfaces
solar PV in Palestine is an on-grid solar system [9]. The Palestinian Energy Authority (PEA) policy is to encourage the Palestinian people to utilize solar PV power to contribute to independency of Palestinian energy and support the Palestinian
Solar energy implementation at the household level: Gaza Strip

Mapping of Solar Energy Potential in the West Bank,
Palestine has a high solar energy potential, receiving about 3,000 sunshine hours per year with a solar radiation of 8.27kwh/m 2 /day in the middle area, 7.51 in the southern area, 6.86 in the western area, and 6.15 in the eastern area.
Power generation of solar PV systems in Palestine
In this article, a PV system of 220 kW peak was proposed as a renewable resource of power generation for grid connected applications in residential quarter in north Palestine. The proposed system was simulated using MATLAB solver, in which the input parameters for the solver were the meteorological data for the selected location and the size of

Thesis, An-Najah National University: Palestine El-Khozondar HJ, El-Batta FF (2018) Survey Study for the Usage of Solar Energy at Household by the Employees of Al-Shifa Medical Complex in Gaza Strip.
How many schools in Palestine have solar energy systems?
The Ministry of equipment and Higher Education and the Palestine Investment Fund (PIF) in Palestine have an agreement to equip 500 public schools with solar energy systems . The Ministry of Agriculture and the Ministry of the Interior also started to adopt solar energy systems for their departments.
When did solar energy start in the Gaza Strip?
Implementation of renewable energy, and in particular solar energy, in the Gaza Strip started in 2012 when the Ministry of Health used solar energy to power several clinics and hospitals, e.g., department of care cardiac surgery in Al-Shifa medical complex .
Are homeowners in Gaza implementing solar energy technology?
Accordingly, the attitudes of homeowners in Gaza regarding successfully implementing solar energy technology (as measured by environmental benefit, initial installation cost of solar energy systems, and solar energy economic values) due to different attributes are considered.
Can solar energy be used in the Gaza Strip?
Later the same authors gave an assessment of the potential of solar energy in the Gaza Strip in order to eliminate the suffering of Gazans due to lack of electricity . They proposed solving the Gaza Strip energy needs by building PV systems on the roofs of local houses that would then produce 555 MW.
Do Gazans need alternative energy sources?
Gazans are desperate to adopt different energy sources because of the situation in which they live. Thus, it is important to make a thorough study of the benefits of using of any alternative energy systems and their applicability in peoples’ lives. The main sources of renewable energy are solar energy, wind, biomass and geothermal energy.
