ENERGY SECTOR IN LEBANON

Energy Sector in Lebanon• More than 97% of Lebanese energy needs are imported• Ministry of Energy Policy Paper of 2010, a shift to natural gas

and the penetration of renewable energy up to 12% of the energy mix by 2020.

Solar Photovoltaic (PV) Farms - Lebanon• Photovoltaic (PV) power is currently characterized by the

greatest global annual growth• Lebanon has favorable climate for PV Systems & power power

plants, due to the solar irradiance levels, • In comparison to GCC countries, Lebanon has a middle

climate: Positive impact on efficiency of systems• No dust or sand • The prospects of PV farms in Lebanon, given resource

availability, land availability, and combined with the current expected costs of PV farms, are positive.

BATROUN CENTRALIZED PV SYSTEM

Study Case

Batroun Centralized RE System• Batroun is located in the Kaza of Batroun in the district of

North Lebanon.• It's 54 kilometers away from Beirut

Batroun Centralized RE System• Al Batroun port is a living museum that was and still is

supplying to locals markets with fresh fish.

Study Case - Batroun

• .Transform the port into an area of interaction during the night for events,

concerts, social gathering.

Batroun PV Project – Considerations

• Importance of the project’s location (near the historical Phoenician Wall)

• UNDP role in developing this industry and funding pilot projects.

• Advanced products with high specifications and quality in order to comply with the difficult marine conditions.

• Provide lighting for the whole port with very low power consumption

Batroun PV Project – Installation Challenges

• Design modifications and adjustments, • Harsh site conditions, • Excavation and Installation of new power and

control network.• Meet the requested timeline by the UNDP and

avoid any conflict with Batroun international festival.

Batroun PV Project – Maintenance

• The maintenance of such advanced projects located on the seashore is mandatory (Steel maintenance for the poles & PV structure, PV system maintenance)

• The Municipality plays a major role from the system execution until delivery and maintenance.
