Energy Provisioning and Operating Costs in Hybrid Solar-Powered Infrastructure
Abstract
In this paper, we consider the operating and capital expenditure (CAPEX) costs of solar-powered additions to infrastructure that is operated from the power grid. The CAPEX costs are those associated with provisioning the solar power components, and are selected using an offline design optimization. Once the solar add-on is designed and deployed, the node incurs ongoing operating expenditure (OPEX) costs associated with the purchase of power …
