Simulation and performance analysis of 110 kW'p grid-connected photovoltaic system for residential building in India: A comparative analysis of various PV technology

摘要

System simulation is necessary to investigate the feasibility of Solar PV system at a given location. This study is done to evaluate the feasibility of grid connected rooftop solar photovoltaic system for a residential Hostel building at MANIT, Bhopal, India (Latitude: 23^o 16' N, Longitude: 77^o 36' E). The study focuses on the use of Solargis PV Planner software as a tool to analyze the performance a 110 kW"p solar photovoltaic rooftop plant and also compares the performances of different PV technologies based on simulated energy yield and performance ratio. Solargis proves to easy, fast, accurate and reliable software tool for the simulation of solar PV system.
