Analysis of Power Transactions on the Integrated Solar Home System

Abstract

Recently, renewable energy has become a popular natural resource to replace the fossil energy. So that its presence is increasingly being explored for use as a power plant. Solar energy is the most desirable and many methods are developed to capture the energy coming from the sun and convert it. The conversion process that is often encountered is by using solar cells. With the development of solar cell technology, more and more solar home systems (SHS) are being used based on the utilization of solar energy in load centers. SHS integrated into the electricity network is also increasingly connected to the system, so that it will have an impact on the performance of all three power transactions in progress. Therefore, in this study, the integration is evaluated using the financial value for each transaction based on energy exports and imports between customers and providers. The results show this has been done on the export-import of electricity during the customer's electricity consumption process, and the integration of SHS also contributes to the balance of the existing power stock. In addition, taking into account customer profiles, it can be seen that consumers have a profit of 14% customers 1, 15% customers 2, and 24% customers 3.
