Abstract
Educational institutes have ample potential and good scope to generate solar energy. As these institutes function during daytime, the generated energy can be used in order to meet the electricity requirements of the campus. It can both be designed to work as grid-connected and off-grid mode using the unused rooftops of these institutes. In this study, a 90 kWp grid connected solar photovoltaic system for Kamrup Polytechnic in Baihata Chariali has been designed at the proposed rooftop. It simulated using PVsyst version7.0.9 simulation tool. The annual energy generation from simulation for the 90 kWp grid connected 12675 kWh with a performance ratio of 73.1%. Economic analysis of these PV systems has also been performed to determine the annual levelised cost of energy production which is found to range from about Rs 3.170/kWp for 90 kWp PV system. This work summarizes the estimation of electrical load in Kamrup polytechnic, the design of PV system, the simulation results, performance analysis, as well as economic analysis for grid connected PVsystem.
