Abstract

The target set by India for installing solar photovoltaic power plants is 100 GW. Out of this, 40 GW is to be complimented by rooftop solar photovoltaic power plants. These targets are to be achieved by year 2022. But, till 31st May 2019, only 4.91% of the target set for rooftop solar photovoltaic is achieved. Despite the growth in renewable sector, achieving that target is still a challenge. This paper discusses the technical and economical analysis of a rooftop solar PV plant of 300 kW installed at Rajasthan Technical University, Kota, India. The study reveals the importance of simulating a solar PV power plant by using software before installation. HOMER software is used for the simulation of power plant. It is found that if high power rating modules are used instead of the presently installed modules, 61,608 kWh/year of additional energy can be generated. Levelized cost of electricity (LCOE) of the system (including energy imported from the grid supply) comes out to be ₹6.39/kWh, as renewable fraction is only 25.5% of the total load demand.

基于组件容量变化的屋顶太阳能光伏系统技术经济分析

印度为安装太阳能光伏电站设定的目标是100吉瓦。其中，40吉瓦将由屋顶太阳能光伏发电厂补充。这些目标将在2022年之前实现。但是，截至2019年5月31日，仅实现了4.91%的屋顶太阳能光伏目标。尽管可再生能源领域有所增长，但实现这一目标仍然是一个挑战。本文讨论了安装在印度哥打拉贾斯坦技术大学的300千瓦屋顶太阳能光伏电站的技术和经济分析。该研究揭示了在安装前使用软件模拟太阳能光伏电站的重要性。采用HOMER软件对电厂进行仿真。研究发现，如果使用高功率模块代替目前安装的模块，每年可产生61,608千瓦时的额外能源。该系统的平准化电力成本(LCOE)(包括从电网进口的能源)为₹6.39/千瓦时，可再生部分仅占总负荷需求的25.5%。
