  • Abstract
    in this article, we present the study and results for the installation of a mini-photovoltaic power plant of 2 kW installed in the desert region (Applied Research in Renewable Energy (URAER), Ghardaia in southern Algeria during 15 days (14–31 January 2016). The objective is to compare Homer software simulation and experimental recorded data, to characterize and to evaluate the dynamic performance and energy balance of a photovoltaic plant composed of a PV generator, a battery storage and regulator which has the role of protecting the battery and management system operation face the climatic variations in desert region.
