Abstract

The results of a proposal for a high-efficiency photovoltaic system with multipurpose applications implemented along a road are presented. This system is designed to address issues related to lighting, telecommunications, and electric vehicle charging. The need for an isolated system arises from sudden power outages in the country that affect road safety and reliability, as well as the lack of phone signal in some areas. In the field of lighting, an analysis is conducted using DiaLux software to ensure compliance with appropriate lighting standards for different types of roads. Furthermore, the multipurpose system includes electric vehicle charging, which is becoming increasingly relevant due to the shift towards more eco-friendly vehicles. Providing electric vehicle charging along roads resolves the issue of limited electric vehiclerange and promotes their reliable use. The evaluation of the energyresource using the Glover and McCulloch method is essential fordesigning an efficient system capable of meeting various user needs. Additionally, reducing carbon dioxide emissions is a significantconsideration, as electric vehicles can significantly contribute toreducing greenhouse gas emissions compared to fossil fuel vehicles.
