This evaluation process is a part of the Lebanese Center for Energy Conservation's efforts to improve the quality of installations of solar PV systems in Lebanon.

How much solar power does Lebanon have?

Lebanon had a cumulative installed solar PV capacity of just 56.37 MW at the end of 2018 (LCEC 2019d), including large-scale projects and distributed installations.

What are the energy data based on in Lebanon?

The energy data employed by this study was largely based on two reports published by the Lebanese Centre for Energy Conservation (LCEC), namely the NREAP 2016–2020 (LCEC, 2016) and The First Energy Indicators Report of the Republic of Lebanon (LCEC, 2018). 1. Primary energy supply Lebanon relies on imports to satisfy its energy demand.

What is the average solar irradiation in Lebanon?

IRENA’s Global Atlas for Renewable Energy (see Figure 20) indicates that annual average solar irradiation in Lebanon ranges between 1 520 kWh/m2/year and 2 148 kWh/m2/year, with a significant majority of areas being above 1 900 kWh/m2/year.

Where does primary energy come from in Lebanon?

Primary energy production in Lebanon comes from mainly imported oil products. In 2016, fuel imports accounted for around 95% of overall energy production and imports. Some 96% of the country’s total primary energy supply (TPES) in 2017 was sourced from primary and secondary oils, followed by coal at 2% (IEA, 2019). Figure 3.

Which region in Lebanon has the highest solar irradiation potential?

Based on the wind atlas for Lebanon (GH, 2011) or solar irradiation measurements, the highest potential for wind generation is concentrated in the Akkar and Bekaa-Hermel regions, which are endowed with a significantly high solar irradiation estimated at 20% above other regions.
