The objective is to explore the different types of storage systems and their contributions to energy efficiency, the integration of renewable energies, and the improvement of the reliability of the electricity supply. A qualitative investigation was carried out, and the bibliographic review and the inductive-deductive method were used as a methodology, the result was that accumulation systems have less economic and environmental impact, standing out as the most innovative technologies and possible implementation at a global level, these Results indicate that the adoption of these systems not only improves grid stability, but also facilitates a faster transition to a sustainable energy future.</p> Sneider Eduardo Vera-Ruiz Aaron Alejandro Coll-Bravo Héctor Jesús Macías-Loor Kevin Patricio Paz-Mendoza Ronald Ismael Véliz-Menéndez Copyright (c) 2024 International journal of physical sciences and engineering http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0 2024-08-12 2024-08-12 8 2 9 16 10.53730/ijpse.v8n2.15053 Photovoltaic system for self-consumption in the El Limón community, Portoviejo, Manabí https://sciencescholar.us/journal/index.php/ijpse/article/view/15052 <p>A simulation of a photovoltaic system connected to the grid, located in El Limón, in the Portoviejo canton, for self-consumption was carried out to reduce demand during daytime hours. The literature review was used and the PvSyst tool was used, a system with a total capacity of 3075 Wp was evaluated. Various parameters were analyzed, including energy production, system losses, and economic viability. The results indicate an annual production of 4278.52 kWh and a payback period of approximately 3 years, with an average performance of 84.10%. This study provides a detailed view of the performance and financial implications of the implementation of photovoltaic systems in this region.</p> Leonardo David Sabando-Catagua Jorge Agustín Vergara-Faubla Julio Cesar Guaman Segarra Copyright (c) 2024 International journal of physical sciences and engineering http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0 2024-08-12 2024-08-12 8 2 17 25 10.53730/ijpse.v8n2.15052 Environmental monitoring system to optimize the performance of solar panels in university environments https://sciencescholar.us/journal/index.php/ijpse/article/view/15071 <p>A temperature and radiation monitoring system were developed to optimize the performance of solar panels at the Faculty of Engineering and Applied Sciences (FICA) of the Technical University of Manabí. The objective was to implement IoT technologies and high precision sensors for data capture, the waterfall development methodology was applied that facilitated a structured approach, ensuring that each phase, from requirements analysis to maintenance, was executed effectively. The result was the collection of critical data that allows a detailed analysis of the performance of the solar panels. These results demonstrated that the system not only improves the monitoring of solar panels, but also contributes to the more efficient use of renewable energy sources. In addition, the integration of a Dashboard with the Geoportal digital platform allowed a clear and accessible visualization of the data, facilitati&nbsp; ng informed decision making to optimize the performance of the panels. In conclusion, this system represents a viable solution to improve energy efficiency and offers a solid foundation for future expansions, including the incorporation of more sensors and integration with other IoT platforms, which will further strengthen the sustainability and impact of the project.</p> Víctor Alfonso Martínez-Falcones Alan Cobeña-Zambrano Jefferson Jesael Pérez-Loor Ángel José Cedeño-Moreira Ramón Alejandro Zambrano-Intriago Copyright (c) 2024 International journal of physical sciences and engineering http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0 2024-08-19 2024-08-19 8 2 26 35 10.53730/ijpse.v8n2.15071
