1. PV System
Solar

PV systems are semiconductor devices

that convert sunlight directly into electricity.
They do so without any moving parts and
without generating any noise or pollution.
They must be mounted in an unshaded
Location ; rooftops, carports, and groundmounted arrays are common mounting Location
s. PV systems work very well in Middleton,
Wisconsin, where the average global horizontal
annual solar resource is 4.6 kWh/m2 /day. This
number, however, is not the amount of energy
that can be produced by a PV

1.PV System
Panel:- The amount of energy produced by a
panel depends on several factors. These factors
include the type of collector, the tilt and
azimuth of the collector, the temperature, the
level of sunlight, and weather conditions.
An inverter is required to convert the direct
current (DC) to alternating current (AC) of the
desired voltage compatible with building and
utility power systems.
The balance of the system consists of
conductors/conduit, switches, disconnects, and
fuses. Grid-connected PV systems feed power
into the facilitys electrical system and do not
include batteries.

1.PV System

Figure shows the major components of a

grid-connected PV system and illustrates
how these components are interconnected

1.PV System
PV panels

are made up of many individual

cells that all produce a small amount of current
and voltage.
These

individual cells are connected in series

to produce a larger current. PV panels are very
sensitive to shading. When shade falls on a
panel, the shaded portion of the panel cannot
collect the high-energy beam radiation from the
sun.

2.Types of PV System
2.1 Ground-Mounted Systems
A ground-mounted system is required at a
landfill because there is little to no roof area.
On a $/DC-Watt basis, ground-mounted PV
systems are usually the lowest cost option to
install. Several PV panel and mounting options
are available, each having different benefits for
different ground conditions.

2.Types of PV System

2.2 Roof-Mounted Systems

In many cases, a roof is the best Location for a PV

system. Roof-mounted PV systems are usually more
expensive than ground-mounted systems, but a roof is
a convenient Location because it is out of the way
and usually unshaded.
Large areas with minimal rooftop equipment are
preferred, but equipment can sometimes be worked
around if necessary.
If a building has a sloped roof, a typical flushmounted crystalline silicon panel can achieve power
densities on the order of 10 DC-Watt/ft2. For
buildings with flat roofs, rack-mounted systems can
achieve power densities on the order of 8 DC-Watt/ft2
with a crystalline silicon panel.

3.PV System Components

The PV system considered here has these
components.
PV arrays, which convert light energy to DC
electricity.
Inverters, which convert DC to AC and
provide important safety, monitoring, and
control functions.
Various wiring, mounting hardware, and
combiner boxes.
Monitoring equipment.

3.1 PV Array

The primary component of a PV system, the PV

array, converts sunlight to electrical energy, all
other components simply condition or control
energy use.
Most PV arrays consist of interconnected PV
modules that range in size from 50 peak DCWatts to 300 -320 peak DC-Watts.
Peak watts are the rated output of PV modules at
standard operating conditions of 25C (77F) and
insulation of 1,000 W/m.
Because these standard operating conditions are
nearly ideal, the reliable components in any PV
system. They have been engineered to withstand
extreme temperatures, severe winds, and impacts.
ASTM E1038-05

3.2 Inverters
PV arrays provide DC power at a voltage that depends
on the configuration of the array. This power is
converted to AC at the required voltage and number of
phases by the inverter.
Inverters enable the operation of commonly used
equipment such as appliances, computers, office
equipment, and motors. Current inverter technology
provides true sine wave power at a quality often better
than that of the serving utility.
The Location s of both the inverter and the balance-ofsystem equipment are important. Inverters are
available that include most or all of the control systems
required for operation, including some metering and
datalogging capability. Inverters must provide several
operational and safety functions for interconnection
with the utility system.

3.3 Operation and Maintenance

The PV panels come with a 25-year

performance warranty. The inverters, which
come standard with a 5- or10-year warranty
(extended warranties available), would be
expected to last 1015 years.

System performance should be verified on a

vendor-provided website. Wire and rack
connections should be checked.

3.4 PV Size and Performance

PV arrays must be installed in unshaded

Location s on the ground or on building roofs
that have an expected life of at least 25 years.
The predicted array performance was found
using a combination of PVWATTS, a
performance calculator for grid-connected PV
systems created by company Renewable
Resource Data Center, and Sol Opt, a solar
performance tool currently being developed at
company .
The performance data was used to calculate
the amount of revenue that could be expected
each year.

3.5 Rooftop Area Details

Building #1 Covered Area = 894769 sq.ft.

Building # 2 Covered Area = 726953 sq.ft.

Building #3 Covered Area =1036545sq.ft.

Total Covered Area = 3017787 sq.ft.

4 Economics and Performance

(Assumptions and Input Data for Analysis)
It was assumed that the installed cost of fixedtilt roof-mounted systems will be INR 65/W and
fixed-tilt ground mounted systems will be INR
65/W.
These prices include the PV array and the
balance-of-system components for each system,
including the inverter, electrical equipment, and
installation.
The economics of grid-tied PVdepend on
incentives, the cost of electricity, and the solar
resource including panel tilt and orientation.
