Abstract

The features of designing, creating, and operating a solar photoelectric power station (PhEPS) for a 10 kW high-altitude observatory Maidanak (Uzbekistan Academy of Sciences) introduced into operation in 2016 to secure continuous and efficient operation and remotely control astronomical telescopes are presented in the paper. Problems regarding a highly efficient modification and features for controlling a Zeiss-1000 astronomical telescope in order to significantly decrease its power consumption are also studied.
