The drive to integrate alternative energy resources into utility networks is set to accelerate in 2020 as governments aim to meet the rising demand for power. The rapid population growth combined with ambitious industrial and economic expansion programs are resulting in a growing need for power, with demand for electricity in the Middle East forecasted to triple by 2050, one of the industry reports states.
Registering the peak power at 225 KWp, more than 3,339 customized solar panels cover an area of 2,000 Sq.m that targets generating more than 360,000 KWh electricity annually which will result in huge cost savings. The solar panel is designed in such a manner that it will improve savings through better efficiency rates, net-metering, lower equipment, and installation costs.
