| Abstract | ||
| Providing sustainable energy for production units and workshops in Hormozgan province is one of the main challenges in this province. This problem has doubled as the hot seasons of the year approach. The use of solar panels on the roofs of buildings and sheds in industrial cities is a good potential to use these roofs to produce energy. After the field investigation of the existing space in Bandar Abbas Industrial Estate No. 2, the dimensions and height of the buildings have been calculated. By using the descriptive tables and querying capabilities of ArcGIS software, these data have been analyzed, and the effective area for using solar panels has been estimated. Then, using the PVSol software version 2021, the installation of solar panels on the roofs of the buildings that could be installed was simulated. The results have shown that about 30 % of the roof area of existing buildings in Bandar Abbas Industrial Estate No. 2 has the possibility of installing solar panels. Installing a solar panel in this effective area makes it possible to build a renewable solar power plant with a power of 8.06 kWp, to produce 3.1 TWh of electricity per year. The efficiency of this power plant in this area is around 82 %. Due to the proper efficiency of this power plant in the region, the production of 6800 tons of CO2 gas with similar fossil power plants will be prevented. | ||
