[PDF Version]The energy situation in Afghanistan is limited and heavily dependent on fossil fuels and imported electricity. Due to rapid population growth and progress in the industry, services, and agriculture sectors, the existing energy sources are not currently meeting the energy needs of the country.
Energy planning and solar plant site selections are vital strategic decisions and one of the most complex executive challenges in the interconnected procedures. It is essential to study the potential renewable energy sources in Afghanistan to select the most sustainable sites for solar power production in populated cities.
Solar power, specifically solar photovoltaic (PV), has the potential to significantly contribute to improving energy security in Afghanistan and ensuring energy sustainability. It holds both theoretical and practical potential, as well as economic viability, to become the leading source of energy in the country.
Solar energy is a renewable energy source that uses the light and heat of the sun to produce electrical or thermal energy. It is clean and cheap energy that is accessible almost anywhere in the world. In Afghanistan, solar energy has traditionally been used for water heating.
Roughly, 89% of electricity in Afghanistan is consumed by households. For instance, in the capital Kabul, 95 % of the population usually has access to electricity, while in Zabol province the access rate is only 37%.
The southern and western provinces of Afghanistan, including Helmand, Kandahar, Herat, Farah, and Nimroz, have the highest solar power potential in the country, with an overall capacity of 142.568 MW or 64% of the total potential. The distribution of solar resources in Afghanistan indicates that these provinces have the capacity for installing PV technology.

This paper discusses a particular case of CAES—an adiabatic underwater energy storage system based on compressed air—and its evaluation using advanced exergy analysis.
Advanced adiabatic compressed air energy storage (AA-CAES) system has drawn great attention owing to its large-scale energy storage capacity, long lifespan, and environmental friendliness. However, the performance of the air turbine during the discharging process is limited by the low temperature of the compression heat.
We review the literature on analytical models of advanced adiabatic compressed air energy storage plants with isochoric reservoirs, with a focus on the insights that can be extracted from the models.
In advanced adiabatic CAES (AA-CAES), the thermal energy generated by the compression of the air is not rejected, but captured in a thermal-energy storage (TES) before entering a reservoir. (We use “reservoir” as a generic term for both underground storage volumes such as caverns as well as for above-ground storage volumes such as tanks.)
New models developed for adiabatic reservoirs and turbomachinery, without throttling. Models give expressions for plant efficiency and storage capacity. Models can be used for initial plant design by estimating reservoir volumes. Reduced maximum process temperatures imply reduced plant efficiencies.
Thermodynamic Model In the thermodynamic model for the AA-CAES system, the assumptions are listed below: - The air circulates in the close loop cycle and is considered as an ideal gas. - Storage vessel is assumed to be well insulated and no heat loss across the vessel.
A novel water cycle compressed air energy storage system (WC-CAES) is proposed to improve the energy storage density (ESD) and round trip efficiency (RTE) of A-CAES. The new system decreases electricity consumption by recovering and reusing the hydraulic pressure of water.
