Design And Cost Estimation Of A Grid Tied Pv Module

The eradication of fossil fuel resources in near future and the increase in percentage of carbon emission has focused the attention towards alternative energy sources to meet up the present day demands in an environmental friendly way. Solar energy being an inexhaustible; easily available and pollution free potential resource among all renewable energy options. In the present scenario; there is a need of uninterrupted supply of electricity; which cannot be met by alone solar photovoltaic ( SPY) system due to periodical and seasonal variability in solar insolation and ambient temperature. Therefore; in order to gratify the load needs the amalgamation of solar and conventional energy generation system are now being implemented as a Grid tied energy system. The main objective of this work is to estimate the cost analysis for 155 kWp grid tied SPY scheme to be installed on the surveyed site. This paper also presents the load survey done on Main building of Z.H. College of Eng. & Tech.; AMU; Aligarh. Payback period and energy requirement of the proposed Grid tied SPY system per day is also calculated.
