Abstract This study aims at developing a standard procedure for the design of large-scale institutional grid-connected solar Photovoltaic (PV) systems using the roofs of buildings and car
The project aims to design and implement a hybrid solar power system with a battery energy storage system (BESS) and a diesel generator (DG) to meet a manufacturing facility''s load
The non-residential sector (i.e. commercial users less than 100 kVA) pay between 15 and 26 ¢/kWh . These electricity tariffs makes Ghana one of the most expensive countries among middle-income developing countries in relation to cost of energy.
The Kenya Renewable Energy Association also pointed out that, “The average solar PV system size for households in Kenya is 25-30Wp. The typical cost of installed systems is about 12 USD/Wp installed” (KEREA, n.d.).
The PV-Battery technology proved to be the optimum system for the Ghanaian economic and weather conditions even other the current financial arrangements used for the simulation. Fig. 7.
This is an important issue, because although the utility-scale grid-connected solar PV market is the largest market in Africa in terms of MW deployed, the of-grid market is the largest in terms of number of systems deployed (IRENA, 2015b). The of-grid market comprises SHS and mini-grid systems.
Project developers are now targeting sub-USD 2/W cost ranges in East and West Africa. This suggests that with the right regulatory framework and access to finance, competitive cost structures for utility-scale solar PV are achievable throughout Africa.
The report presents the data that IRENA was able to collect for solar PV costs in Africa. The data for utility-scale projects from the IRENA Renewable Cost Database9 were the starting point for the creation of a wider dataset that encompasses the SHS and mini-grid market segments as well.
