Abstract | ||||
This paper presents the complete design of a grid-connected Photovoltaic (PV) system to supply electric power for the Department of Electrical Engineering in Assiut University, Assiut Province, Egypt according to their energy requirements. This system can be installed on the roof and the south side of the Department of Electrical Engineering. Homer software is used as the sizing and optimization tool to determine the size and specifications of photovoltaic system components, system cost and estimation of corresponding produced electrical power. Simulation results and analyses are presented to validate the proposed system configuration. | ||||
