3.1 Photovoltaic systems. The planet has renewable energy resources, including solar energy as it is a source that is abundantly found on the surface. Estrada explains that the abundance is such that the solar energy received during 10 days on Earth is equivalent to the sum of all the reserves of fossil fuels such as oil, gas, and

The unit mainly consists of several wind farms, PV arrays, energy storage buildings for battery banks, and a combined coordinate operation control system. Wind farms and PV arrays are primarily responsible for generating power from wind and solar energy and are the main generating equipment of WPB-PGUs.
