Abstract

In this paper, sizing and performance investigation of grid-connected solar photovoltaic system on the basis of load demand of MANIT, Bhopal (23.2599° N, 77.4126° E), Madhya Pradesh, India, is presented. All the aspects associated with grid-connected solar photovoltaic system are measured for fiscal viability of photovoltaic system for the proposed location. 750 kWP is proposed for satisfying the MANIT campus load. Proposed system can generate 1144 MWh annual average energy with 17.4% capacity factor. Per unit cost of the proposed system estimated as 3.129 INR per kWh and this proposed system has present value approximately 3.825 cr. INR. This study helps to appreciate design of grid-connected solar photovoltaic system in Bhopal and nearby region.
