Then, we want to express deep gratitude to our parents for their help, support, and love. During the period of our study at the university, we have received great help from many doctors and professors at the university, whom we would like to put on record here with deep gratitude and great pleasure, we would like to thank UOH staff for boosting our ideas by giving us the chance to transfer such thoughts into reality. Moreover, we want to spotlight on our supervisor Dr.Ahmed AL-Zamil and thank him for his assistant, time and effort which were very precious and helpful to fulfill our project. Finally, during these days which we spent preparing our project, we have exposed ourselves to a different electrical aspect which is the green energy as well as gaining and learning many skills that definitely will add something to our career. 3 Content Page ACKNOWLEDGMENT 3 ABSTRACT 11 INTRODUCTION 12 Chapter 1 General Introduction of Project 13 1.1 Background 14 1.2 Our Objectives 16 1.3 The Mythology 16 Chapter 2 Solar System 17 2.1 Solar Energy 18 2.2 Major PV System Components 18 2.3.1 Photovoltaic (PV) Cells 19 2.3.2 Photovoltaic Modules and Arrays 20 2.3.3 The controller of solar charge 21 2.3.4 Inverter 21 2.3.5 Batteries 21 2.4 Types of Solar PV Systems 21 2.4.1 Off-Grid System ( Stand-alone system) 21 2.4.2 Grid-Tied System(On-grid system) 22 2.4.3 Hybrid system 23 2.5 Factors That Affect Solar Panels 23 2.5.1 The Shading 23 2.5.2 High Temperatures 23 2.5.3 Dirt and Dusts 23 2.5.4 Snow Blocking Cells 24 2.6 Orientation 24 2.6.1 Fixed Tilt 24 2.6.2 Adjusting The Tilt Twice a Year 24 4 Content Page 2.7 Solar Resources -

This mid-report only contains four chapters. We are going to give a clue about Yemen geographical location in the first chapter as well as the objects and the methodology with we are going to follow an approach. Then, we will demonstrate the concept of solar energy, the basic principle of working and the components of it. Also, the pros and cons of using those panels, and the factors responsible for declining the efficiency percentage. In the third chapter, we are going to provide information about the wind turbine such as the principle of working, the components of the wind turbine and how it transfers the wind power into electricity and the elements which specify how much power we can get by considering some factors such as the altitude. Finally, we have assembled some data from four cities in Yemen regarding many to the amount of solar radiation and the wind blowing and we have analyzed these data to choose the best location. 11 INTRODUCTION Relying on Fossil Fuel (coal, oil, and gas) have been an issue which concerns many countries because they are finite. consume them for long enough will eventually run out. Yemen has been relying on such power in all its plant’s. During the last year’s most of the people didn’t have access to the electricity due to the difficulties of extracting the Oil and the global raising of Fuel prices which operate all the generations planets in Yemen as well as the dramatically increasing of inhabitants which cause more demands on electricity. Despite all the extracting issues, Coal, Oil, and Gas are the main elements which cause greenhouse effects and environmental pollution. Finding an alternative power source that people could actually rely on is the best solution to tackle such problem, so we have decided to use wind and solar energy due to the huge amount of solar radiation and wind blowing which my country exposed to almost all the year by designing wind-solar hybrid system and choosing the best place to implement our project.
