Abstract

Currently, electrochemical protection of pipelines is provided by cathodic protection stations, which receive electric energy from power lines laid along the pipeline route. The construction and installation of facilities that ensure the transmission of electricity from centralized sources to locations of cathodic protection stations and the conversion of its parameters to the required level is characterized by significant capital costs. In recent years, there has been a leap forward in the development of alternative energy sources, which allows us to consider them as sources for power supply of cathodic protection stations. This paper describes the possibility of using photovoltaic converters to power cathodic protection stations. In addition, an implementation scheme was proposed and analyzed.
