Abstract:
The main objective of this paper is to build regional interconnected DC network extended through the upper part of Africa including Sahara desert in order to maximize the utilization of distributed generation such as solar energy in Sahara desert and wind power inthe Mediterranean and the atlantics. The paper also develops friendly integrated techniques toconnect the wind farm and solar projected into DC network pool according to stand-ard grid codes without creating operational or stability problems. The paper addresses the challenges of the power mismatch and frequency instability emerges due to nature ofrenewable power units and the power trading between the regional networks and the dc power pool.
