Abstract

Application of environmentally compatible technical requirement seeks to perceive communities for a better tomorrow. So the solar energy technologies have distinctive and promising opportunity for use in activating multiple applications, most notably electricity generation. Mina owns key elements that make it attractive for experimenting of these technologies and their applications. Mina is a unique phenomenon in the whole world inhabited with pilgrims during the Hajj days only and the camps are not utilized the rest of the year. So the importance of this research stems from its attempt to introduce an architectural vision that takes advantage of solar energy applications in this holy spot and makes it a pilot project that can be emulated. In this paper a functional analysis of the components of the basic techniques of solar energy is conducted in order to merge them with the pilgrims camps. The research concludes the proper techniques that can be incorporated in project development. At last, the research has a set of recommendations focused on the importance of making use of solar energy technologies, environmentally compatible especially photovoltaic, that are characterized by flexibility and are used to substitute part of tents roof that are made out of Teflon. There is need for integrating this architectural vision with other engineering disciplines.
