Knowledge of fiber optic splicing methods is vital to any company or fiber optic technician involved in Telecommunications or LAN and networking projects. Simply put, fiber optic splicing involves joining two fiber optic cables together. The other, more common, method of joining fibers is called termination or connectorization.
OFS brings unique solutions for fiber in the power network. OFS FOX Solution® for Alternative Energy applications features several end-to-end solutions optimized to distribute fiber in the wind and solar farm for connection with the grid. Solutions for the wind and solar farm: See below for a typical application of our products in the control box:
Fiber is more than capable of supporting the small volume of data transfers at these “solar farms.” A variety of devices are served by a solar installation's network. Inverters convert the DC power from the photovoltaic (PV) panels to the AC power required by the utility grid. Monitoring the inverters' health and performance is critical.
Fusion splice-on connectors (FSOC) or Mechanical splice-on connectors (MSOC) can be installed on-site in the field. The main advantage of a field installable connector is to eliminate slack management issues. Fusion Splice-on Connectors use a cleaver and fusion splicer to splice a connector to the fiber.
We consider anomalies in terms of power production and do not simulate electricity demand or transmission. However, over- and underproduction would theoretically correspond to an over- or undersupply, if all else was equal. We assess anomalies in PV and wind power production associated with different weather patterns.
For instance, the lowest hourly PV plus wind power productions are simulated during weather patterns with very regionally low wind speeds for the present-day installation while weather patterns for dark doldrums coincide with the lowest wind plus PV production for the 2050 installation, consistent with the higher share of PV power in 2050.
Our findings suggest that weather patterns can serve as indicators for expected photovoltaic and wind power production anomalies and may be useful for early warnings in the energy sector. European countries are collectively facing pressing challenges in securing electricity supply with an increasing share of renewable energy.
A few studies have addressed how synoptic weather conditions influence resources for wind and solar power production, but for past power installations or for a certain region only or limited to 1-day anomalies 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10.
The network operates at 50 Hertz and the voltage at the domestic level is 230 Volts. Virtually all Tunisian electricity (18 TWh) is produced by thermal power plants burning natural gas, the largest of which is in Sousse. Wind energy is the second largest source of electricity in the country; a capacity of 305 MW has been installed in a few years.
The energy sector in Tunisia includes all production, processing and, transit of energy consumption in this country. The production involves the upstream sector that includes general oil and gas, the downstream sector that includes the only refinery in Tunisia and most of the production of natural gas, and varied electrical/renewable energies.
In 2024, the GOT is also expected to launch a tender for the construction of at least one 470-550 MW combined-cycle power plant in Skhira (south Tunisia) as an IPP. In May 2018, the Ministry of Energy and Mines published a call for private projects to build renewable power plants with a total capacity of 1,000 MW (500 MW wind and 500 MW solar).
The Tunisian government has partnered with Russia and France in hopes of establishing nuclear energy as a viable alternative to fossil fuels and taking up a nontrivial chunk of the energy production in Tunisia. This is expected to be accomplished in the 2020s.
