Designing a predictive optimal water and energy irrigation

Fig. 1(b) shows that the same irrigation demand can be met with an SSO schedule for a system with a smaller solar array, meaning less available solar power, if it includes energy storage. The energy storage can be discharged at times of low solar power to extend the irrigation time and meet the demand. However, this energy storage adds expense
