Design the Balance of System (BOS) for Photovoltaic Application at CERE Building for Low Load Application: An Application of HOMER Pro

Abstract:

The reliable renewable energy systems will effective when the optimal output can be achieved. This paper presents a design of the BOS system at the CERE building for low load application. The entire system is being optimized by HOMER Pro software represented the effectiveness system. The HOMER Pro produced the optimal and economic hybrid system configuration. The result indicated the capacity of the PV array is 0.6 kW, 4 units of 1 kWh lead-acid battery and 0.3 kW of inverter was selected to complete the system. The impact of the ambient temperature also has been analysed. The total electrical energy production reduced with considering temperature coefficient. An optimization produced productive configuration over the system lifetime.
