Writer： Hengfeng you electric Time：2023-06-01 views：times
With the increasing awareness of global environmental protection and the development of renewable energy technologies, photovoltaic power generation, as an important form of renewable energy, is gradually being favored by governments, enterprises, investors, and the public around the world. Based on the sales experience of Hengfengyou Electric Olivia, in recent years, the photovoltaic power generation industry has been increasingly valued in the Middle East, especially in countries such as Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, Qatar, Egypt, Oman, and Kuwait. Photovoltaic power generation technology is also the best choice for achieving energy transformation in the Middle East, and photovoltaic step-up transformers, as an important component of photovoltaic power generation systems, have also received market attention.
1. Overview of photovoltaic step-up transformers in the Middle East region
The Middle East is one of the hottest regions in the world, with ample sunlight and minimal rainfall. This natural environment has natural advantages for photovoltaic power generation, therefore, a large number of local photovoltaic power stations have been put into operation, and photovoltaic step-up transformers have also rapidly developed. The requirements for reliability, safety, stability, and other aspects of step-up transformers are very high. This is because the climate in the Middle East region is harsh, with large temperature differences and frequent sandstorms. Therefore, there are high requirements for the operating environment of the equipment, especially for the operating temperature, dust prevention, shock resistance, and corrosion resistance of photovoltaic step-up transformers.
2. Application Cases of Photovoltaic Step-up Transformers in the Middle East
Recently, Hengfengyou Electric successfully delivered 8 sets of 2500kVA-11kV/0.8kV photovoltaic step-up transformers to a 20MVA photovoltaic power station project for an Egyptian client. The main configuration is -2500kVA, 800V boost 11kV, with electrostatic shielding, impedance of 6.5%, temperature rise of 55k/50k, and each transformer is equipped with 5 sets of 500KW series inverters. Hengfengyou Electric has experience in the production and manufacturing of photovoltaic step-up transformers in multiple countries and regions around the world, and can provide perfect solutions for photovoltaic step-up transformers in the Middle East.

3. Development prospects of photovoltaic step-up transformer market in the Middle East region
From 2012 to 2021, the total installed capacity growth rate of renewable energy in the Middle East was 76%, far below the world average of 112%. The latest report from the International Renewable Energy Agency (Irena) shows that the global installed capacity of renewable energy reached 3587GW by the end of 2021, while the total installed capacity in the Middle East region was 24GW. Although it increased by about 4.5% compared to the same period in 2020, it is less than 1% of the global installed capacity. With the continuous development of the Middle East region's economy, investment and construction in the field of renewable energy are also increasing. In the future, photovoltaic step-up transformers in the Middle East region are expected to face greater development opportunities, especially in tens of millions of kilowatt level photovoltaic power plants and large-scale photovoltaic projects. The Middle East region will put forward higher requirements for photovoltaic step-up transformers. According to market expectations, photovoltaic step-up transformers in the Middle East region will reach opportunities and challenges of a billion US dollars market in the future.
In summary, photovoltaic step-up transformers in the Middle East region face more stringent environmental and safety requirements while meeting the basic performance requirements of the equipment. Hengfengyou Electric believes that only by continuously improving product technology and quality can we better meet the photovoltaic power generation needs of the Middle East region.
