4 Frequently Asked Questions about “30kW Solar-Powered Container Used in West African Oil Refineries - Shore Power Energy”

Can solar energy drive crude oil refineries?

Employing solar energy to drive crude oil refineries is one of the investigated pathways for using renewable energy sources to support lowering the carbon emissions and environmental impact of operating the processing of fossil-based fuels.

Can solar energy systems decarbonize oil refineries?

Other studies in the literature considered coupling solar energy systems to oil refineries to decarbonize their operation. The applicability and feasibility of introducing a concentrated solar power (CSP) system to reduce partial reliance on process heaters of a crude oil refinery was studied by Danish et al. .

What fuels are used in Africa?

According to AFREC data, in 2018, diesel and gasoline had a respective market share of 43% and 35% in Africa's consumption mix of petroleum products. Other important fuels include LPG (8%), fuel oil (4%) and kerosene used as aviation fuel and lamp oil (4%). This breakdown by fuel is primarily driven by the consumption structure in Africa.

Can a TRNSYS solar heating system be used in a refinery?

Using TRNSYS software, the proposed Parabolic Trough Collector (PTC)-based solar heating system paired with the boiler is modelled. Sensible thermal energy storage (TES) system is integrated into the refinery's process heating to handle the intermittent nature of solar energy.
