Abstract

In order to achieve a sustainable future andrenewable energy targets, Algeria has launched special projectsforclean energy, such as the Hassi Rmel solar thermal-gas hybrid power plant, the Kaberten wind farm in Adrar, and several small photovoltaic power plants. Besides, othersareplanned including, the Naama PV plant. The aim of this paper, is to present the impact of the expected photovoltaic power plant at the province of Naama on the southwestern network of Algeria. We have justified the choice of the installation of the power plant in this provinceby a detailed analysis of the various data e.g, the solar irradiation, the geographical position and the topology of the electrical network. The obtained results indicate that the installation of this plant would have a positive impact on the system by losses active a reduction of 6.994 MWand improving the voltageprofile
