Is Iraq Ready to Use Solar Energy Applications: A Review
Journal Title: International Journal of Engineering and Science Invention - Year 2017, Vol 6, Issue 10
Abstract
Iraq is a country rich in fossil fuels; it is one of the oil-exporting countries and has the second reserve in the world. It also has reserves of natural gas in fourth place in the world. The abundance of fossil fuels in the country has led to total reliance on it and forgetting to work with renewable sources such as solar energy. The occurrence of Iraq near the solar belt area makes the intensity of solar radiation available in it high, which means the ease of use of various solar applications for the production of electric muffler and source of heat is inexhaustible. In this study, many of the research and studies of Iraq and the world have been reviewed, which prove scientifically and methodically the use of all solar applications is successful in Iraq. All the studies reviewed support Iraq's willingness to take advantage of solar energy applications in a way that reduces total dependence on fossil fuels. For example, the use of solar energy to heat water for domestic purposes in the winter will reduce the required electricity and as a result reduces the consumption of fossil fuels. High levels of solar radiation make applications such as thermal storage as in the Trombe Wall successful in Iraq. The production of electricity by the concentrating power stations (CPS) or using solar cells is quite possible and studies have proved its successfulness. There is still an urgent need to study the negative impact of dust accumulation on solar applications and methods of disposal or reduce the impact on the performance of these applications.
