The Use of Photovoltaic Cell System in Lighting the Parking Lots in AL-Zahra Co-operative Society

Abstract

This research explores the implementation of photovoltaic (PV) cells in the purpose of lighting parking lots within Al-Zahraa co-op’s premises, the aim of this project was to reduce the environmental impact of carbon emission and to enhance energy sustainability. Traditional lighting methods often rely on fossil fuel-based electricity, contributing to carbon emissions and escalating operational costs. Leveraging PV technology offers a renewable alternative by harnessing solar energy to power lighting fixtures efficiently. Through strategic placement of PV panels and integration with energy-efficient LED lighting, the Al-Zahraa Association can achieve reliable illumination while minimizing energy consumption. Battery storage systems ensure uninterrupted lighting during periods of low sunlight or high demand. This initiative showcases a commitment to environmental stewardship, reducing carbon emissions, and inspiring sustainable practices within the community
