10 kVA solar power plant for enterprises including air conditioning

Yield expectation  

In a sunny day, this solar power plant is expected to produce around 43.2 kWh in eastern Africa per day. Enough to cover the energy consumption of many offices and small/medium enterprises during the day.

An example calculation of energy consumption is shown in the table below. This 10 kVA solar power plant can run for example all the appliance of small/medium enterprises (restaurant) including air conditioning for about 8 hours during the day.

All household appliances, which are available in the market (like refrigerator, lightning, fan, TV, PC and more), can be operated with this solar hybrid PV power design

 

Design of the PV power plant

This solar power system is designed for independent power supply and hybrid application. It can be operate as a stand-alone power supply system. A generator can connected and integrated in this solar system. However, this system can be designed for day consumption that the generator can be switched of during daytime.

If the power supply from the photovoltaic (PV) panels is insufficient, the PV system automatically supplements the missing power from the battery storage system. At night or at complete breakdown of the PV panels and empty battery storage, the PV system automatically switches off to protect the lifetime of the battery storage. The system switches automatically to PV supply as soon as the sunrise
