Ajavon "Comparative Study of Electricity Production Cost of Renewable Energy Power Plants: Case of Photovoltaic Plant and Biogas Generators Power Plant in Sahel Area" Published in International Journal of Trend in Scientific Research and Development (ijtsrd), ISSN: 2456-6470, Volume-6 | Issue-2, February 2022, pp.1346-1355, URL: https://www.ijtsrd.com/papers/ijtsrd49434.pdf

The massive use of renewable energies for electricity production still comes up against a very high production cost per kilowatt-hour. Although renewable energies are free and inexhaustible at human scale, most of time the high cost value of producing electricity from these renewable energies is related to the conversion equipments cost. For this reason, the purpose of this research is to choose the most suitable conversion system for a given site, taking into account the system implementing costs and the cost of electricity produced per kilowatt-hour. For a given electrical load, the project carrying out costs and the electricity cost per kilowatt-hour are calculated for Photovoltaic-lithium battery storage, Photovoltaic-AGM battery storage, Photovoltaic-Gel battery storage, Photovoltaic-lead battery storage and plant consisting of generators running on biogas. The different costs comparison made it possible to designate PV-Gel battery storage power plant as the best suited model for the studied site. The Photovoltaic-Gel battery power plant gave the lowest project costs, bearable by users in Sahelian zone in which the electrification project is planned.
