Popis: | This paper presents the full design of a standalone PV system for Dina Farm Rest in Egypt. The location details and meteorological data for the proposed location are collected, as well as the energy demand consumption. The proposed stand-alone PV system consists of PV panels, batteries, inverter, and charge controller. The process of building the stand-alone PV system includes designing, selecting, and evaluating the ratings of PV system components. This process is affected by load requirements, location coordinates, solar irradiation, etc. The sizing and designing process of the stand-alone PV system is performed based on watt-hour demand calculations. Also, a performance analysis of the proposed stand-alone PV system is performed using the PVSyst simulation software. The results of the simulation include total energy generated by the PV array, unused energy, energy supplied to the load, PV conversion efficiency, system losses, performance ratio, etc. This paper will be helpful in sizing and designing the standalone PV system for other locations by following the same procedure adopted in the paper. |
