Web-Based Application for the Sizing of a Photovolatic (PV) Solar Power System
Journal Title: American journal of Engineering Research - Year 2016, Vol 5, Issue 7
Abstract
The harnessing of solar energy, especially for provision of energy for residential consumption, has been on the rise in developing countries, especially Nigeria, in recent times. Due to this reason, there is the need for a tool which makes the design of the system needed to harness this abundant energy more accurate and efficient by considering several factors including specific climate conditions of the country. This paper presents the design and development of a web-based application that helps to estimate the ratings and quantities of the components of the Solar Photovoltaic (PV) System (which converts the solar energy to electrical energy) required based on several factors including the specific climatic conditions of major cities in Nigeria. Index Terms-- climate conditions,Harnessing, Photovoltaic (PV) system
