PV system for emergency power supply of cattle-farm in war conditions

Abstract

This paper presents results of case study dealing with design of power supply system based on photovoltaic system for cattle-farm. Case study focuses more just on power supply of feeding system. The proposed solar system for isolated pasture is described in detail and can be used in war situation. The option B seems more reliable from the financial point of view and also because the selected battery can supply current to the electric fence for the longest time out of all the options, i.e. 643 hours, and the solar panel has the highest efficiency. Part of the proposal deals with anti-theft protection that was consulted with the owner of the eco-farm. Based on the herd's protective behavior, the layout and important components were designed. Another important part of the design is the land boundary itself and the power supply system. To supply water to the herd, membrane feed pumps were chosen, because they do not need electricity. At the same time amelioration shafts were used and located on a secluded pasture. The proposal and its components are financially described.
