The Feasibility of Installing a Small-Scale PV System in a Carport in Kuwait

The need to obtain sustainable energy sources is one of the most important challenges in this century. Several alternatives have been sought, but attention has been focused on Wind turbines and solar energy PV or CSP. The state of Kuwait is one of the countries that is working to Attain a Target of Achieving 15% of its power production in 2030 from clean energy. Since Kuwait is in a hot and sunny region, it was worthwhile to have solar energy as one of the solutions. The state of Kuwait has established the Al-Shagaya clean energy plant, which produces 70 MW moreover, the Consumers and small businesses have established several private ancillary power generation small-scale projects with the encouragement of the Kuwait government that set Laws in 2022 to Allow the Ministry of Elect the city and Water and Renewable Energy MEW to buy Power from citizens and consumers. This research aims to determine the feasibility of small-scale photovoltaic P.V. solar projects
