Optimization PV/Batteries System: Application in Wouro Kessoum Village Ngaoundere Cameroon

This paper presents the optimization of the PV/battery system including extrapolation of the electrical demand. Matlab software was chosen to implement the algorithm. PVC, the number of PV modules and battery capacity increase with increasing electrical demand. This makes it possible to predict the device according to the electrical demand. Particle swarm optimization is used to minimize the total cost of the system over 20 years. The average cost of energy is $0.369/kWh.


Introduction
In Cameroon, 81% of households in rural areas and 12% in urban areas still do not have electricity [1]. The average solar radiation in Cameroon is 4.9 kWh/m 2 /day for the whole country. This solar potential is sufficient for the development of energy uses [2]. The government continues to promote the use of the photovoltaic system. In an autonomous installation, photovoltaic energy is compared to the energy demand in a given locality. [3] estimated the daily energy demand in a village which is 1523 KWh. Similarly [4], also identified energy demand in a locality in Nigeria. However, they did not include variation in energy demand. To satisfy the demand for energy, an optimization study is needed. [5] optimized the autonomous PV system in a residence by an objec-tive function. [6] identified the solar potential in Cameroon. They show that the global solar radiation received in Cameroon varies between 2.9052 kWh/m 2 /day and 4.9709 kWh/m 2 /day for Yaounde, 3.1159 kWh/m 2 /day and 6.2602 kWh/m 2 /day for Garoua, 2.8535 kWh/m 2 /day and 5.9245 kWh/m 2 /day for Bamenda. The average solar potential in Cameroon is 7.431 × 10 8 GWh per year. This potential is exploitable and Cameroon is a country which abounds in solar potential.

Mathematical Model of the PV Module
There are two main types of photovoltaic model [7]: the electrical model or the equivalent model (with one diode or two diodes). Voltage and current are a function of solar irradiation and temperature. The energy model where the power supplied by the solar module is a function of the efficiency of the solar module, its area, the temperature of the module and solar irradiation

The Electrical Model
A photovoltaic cell behaves simply as an ideal current source which produces a current I proportional to the incident light power, in parallel with a diode which corresponds to the p-n transition area of the cell PV ( Figure 1) [7].
According to Pouillet's law: This model is theoretical and does not reflect the behavior of a photovoltaic cell in real conditions. It does not take into account the loss of voltage and leakage current. There are other models, admittedly theoretical, but which more accurately reflect the behavior of the photovoltaic cell ( Figure 2).
This model does not include the radiation effect as there is exchange between the air and the photovoltaic module. Thus (Yahya et al. 2008) [8] held account the radiation effect. The model is described by the following equation:  Models that take into account ambient temperature and solar irradiation [9].
And others are differentiated by the nominal operating cell temperature NOCT [10].
with 20 800 P pv (t) is the power generated in time t expressed in (W), P max is the nominal power of the panel, R and R ref are the solar and reference irradiation (W/m 2 ). T a-ref is the temperature under normal conditions. T c is cell temperature (˚C). T a is the ambient temperature (˚C). The temperature of the solar module was presented under another model [11] [12].

Modeling of the Battery
A 1000 Ah, 48 kW·h Nickel Iron battery (Ni-Fe) bank with 80% DOD and 1% self-discharge per day have been used in this work, the usable energy of the battery is 50 kW·h. An MPPT (Maximum Power Point Tracker) charge control with a maximum of 100 A outputs has been used with the battery bank with a typical 99% efficiency. Since the lifetime of the battery bank is 20 years, which is equal to the project lifetime. The available battery bank capacity [16] [17]: On the other hand, when the available energy generated is less than load demand, the battery bank is in discharging state. hour t and t−1, respectively; b η is the battery efficiency during discharging process, the battery discharging efficiency was set equal to 1 and during charging, the efficiency is 0.65 -0.85 depending on the charging current [18]. the lifetime of the battery bank is 20 years, which is equal to the project lifetime, its replacement cost is zero.
Bat PVC of the battery bank can be calculated as:

Load Profile (Electrical Demand)
The electrical demand is that of the work of [19]. Load demand profile (electrical demand) varies with the variation of households in Wouro Kessoum village. The variation of load profile is given by the extrapolation with the following equation [19]: The extrapolation of electrical demand will be is included in the algorithm for optimization.

Problem Formulation Objective Functions
We have tree objectives function: The system reliability was reliability (the hybrid system satisfied the load by 100%).

Particle Swarm Optimization
Particle swarm optimization is an evolutionary algorithm that uses a population of candidate solutions to develop an optimal solution to the problem. This algorithm has been proposed Russel Eberhart and James Kennedy in 1995 [20]. He was originally inspired by the living world, more precisely by behavior of animal living in swarms, flights groups of birds. Indeed, we can observe in these animals movement dynamics relatively complex, whereas individually each individual has an "intelligence" limited, and has only local knowledge of her situation in the swarm. Local information and the memory of each individual are used to decide their shifting. Simple rules, such as "stay close to other people", "go in the same direction" or "going at the same speed", are sufficient to maintain cohesion of the swarm, and allow the implementation of complex collective behaviors and adaptive. The particle swarm is a population of simple agents called particles. Each particle is considered as a solution of problem, where it has a position (the solution vector) and a speed. In addition, each particle has a memory allowing him to remember his best performance (in position and in value) and the best performance achieved by the "neighboring" particles (informants): each particle has in fact a group of informants, historically called its neighborhood. Each individual in PSO represents a possible solution assumed to have two properties: velocity and position. Each particle wanders through in the solution area and recalls the best objective function value (position), which has already been discovered; the fitness value is saved and known Pbest. When a particle captures all the best population as its topological neighbors, the superior value is a global best and it is called Gbest. The particles flight with a certain velocity in the D-dimensional space to find the optimal solution. Let the variable (x i ) refers to the position of particle (i) in the study space and its speed is (v i ), so the (i th ) from the particle can be represented as (Lu et al., 2015): The best past position of the ith particle is saved under the name vector and calculated by: is the number of particles in a swarm, The r 1 and r 2 are random real numbers drawn from [0, 1], c 1 and c 2 are acceleration constants that pull each particle towards. The procedure for the imple-

Results and Discussion
Study focuses on the economic optimisation. Three objective functions are de-      (22)). The average cost energy per kWh for a year is $0.369/kWh. This is the price that the population of this village can pay as the price per kilowatt hour.

Conclusion
This work highlights the optimum costs, the number of PV modules and the size of the batteries. To do this, the characteristics of the elements were evaluated. The particle swarm method has been chosen to optimize. The optimization constraints have been determined. The constantly increasing demand for energy in a locality is an important factor. Why this factor was taken as constraint. The cost of energy in this locality is $0.369/kWh.
