Abstract

In this paper, the design and performance analysis of a 50 W solar tree with a cost-effective installation is analyzed at Basti, Uttar Pradesh, India. The energy demand is increasing day by day and the fossil fuels are decreasing. So, an alternative option is required to fulfill the energy demand. The renewable energy-based source is best option to fulfill the energy scarcity. Solar tree is designed in a way that there is no effect of shading on the panel, also panels are rearranged according to azimuth angle. The technical and economical assessment of PV solar tree results a future adoptive technology for highly populated area. Solar PV systems are highly cost-effective and helps in the reduction of greenhouse gases. Five PV panels of 10 W are used to form the solar tree and compered with a single 50 W stand-alone PV panel. The maximum power and efficiency of the solar tree is more as compared to stand-alone PV panel with all same conditions, i.e., irradiation level temperature.
