Abstract

Photovoltaic as a renewable source of electrical energy is utilized at University of Bangka Belitung (UBB) as a source of additional electrical energy. With a capacity of 280 Wp per unit, the photovoltaic performance needs to be maintained so that their performance is getting better. After cleaning with cleaning fluid, the photovoltaic voltage output has increased from 13.7 - 16.8 volt to 17.4 - 22.6 volt. After cleaning the photovoltaic, the current output also increased from 0.33 - 1.8 A to 1.5 - 7.6 A. The real power generated also increased from 4.5 - 29.7 Watt to 26 - 164 Watt

Highlights

  • University of Bangka Belitung is currently supplied by electricity sourced from PLN with a total power supply of 690 kVA [1]

  • Various solid materials that stick to the surface of the photovoltaic can cause the performance of the solar panel to decrease, so various methods are applied so that the performance of the photovoltaic can increase with good efficiency [5] - [11]

  • Is the output measurement data from the photovoltaic before and after cleaning. Before it was cleaned, the voltage output from the photovoltaic was around 13.7 - 16.8 volts

Summary

Introduction

University of Bangka Belitung is currently supplied by electricity sourced from PLN with a total power supply of 690 kVA [1]. The availability of electrical energy is to supply all existing facilities and infrastructure at Universitas Bangka Belitung. In the framework of developing green energy at Universitas Bangka Belitung, photovoltaics are available as a backup electricity supply. Several parameters will be used as an indicator of the performance of the photovoltaics, where 1 (one) unit has a capacity of 280 Wp. Several parameters will be used as an indicator of the performance of the photovoltaics, where 1 (one) unit has a capacity of 280 Wp This will be a recommendation to improve the performance of 680 photovoltaic units at Bangka Belitung University as a source of backup electrical energy and support the use of new and renewable energy to reduce carbon emissions
