Abstract: In this study, details of an implementation plan of a 10 kW solar power plant in a typical intelligent electricity network in Mashhad in Iran have been stated. In this plan, all the producers scattered across the city are connected to several centers inside the city through mikrotik radio equipment. The connection between centers is made via. wireless internet. Then, a single information center of scattered solar productions is formed in the center of each province in order to reduce the load production of fossil power plants especially at peak times. To solve the problem in the conditions of lack of a point-to-point connection we use Omni antennas in the receiver which have 360° coverage and do not need direct visibility. Further, if the number of solar power plants (transmitters) is high, mesh network topology is used instead of star topology. In this state, in case of creating obstacles to the transmitter, information of this transmitter automatically reaches the receiver through neighboring transmitters and smart routing. This plan helps to reduce air pollution and develop photovoltaic systems in residential and commercial sectors. Additionally, by implementing this plan we will witness a reduction in fossil fuel consumption.
