Using
the information given below, design a stand-alone PV system for a holiday
cottage in Spain. It needs to provide power for the loads are AC and it is about 1200
Wh/day. The stand-alone inverter already purchased operates at 24 V at the DC
side and it is a 2 kW inverter. The peak sun hours received at this angle for
that location is 6.5 h in March. The total system efficiency is 60% and the DoD
of the battery to be used is specified as 70% and must provide storage for at
least 5 days of autonomous performance. Additional information necessary
includes:
Efficiency of the stand-alone inverter is 90%
Cable loss is 3%.
Specifications of PV modules to be used are nominal for 12 V batteries with
PMPP is 80 Wp, VOC is 21 V, ISC is 5 A, VMPP is 17.8 V and IMPP is 4.5 A
Specifications of battery to be used include 2 V and 50 Ah capacity
You need to
make all calculations for the system and then draw the detailed block diagram
