Project Work (2019-2020 Spring)

  • Students are responsible for preparing a project work in order to simulate an off-grid rooftop PV power plant for a duplex apartment in the following coordinates:

    • 37.50404415 35.86275261 (which corresponds to 37°30'14.6"N 35°51'45.9"E).

  • As a guideline, notes regarding design criteria are as follows:

    • Surface area belonging to the duplex apartment is 60 m² (Rectangle: 6 m x 10 m),

    • Students are free to design the apartment's rooms and electrical appliances (AC and DC loads),

    • Students will simulate their genuine design by using a comprehensive PV software chosen by themselves:

      • 27 April 2020, 11:43, 150103012​, PV*SOL,

      • 29 April 2020, 13:58, 160103032, PVSyst,

      •    1 May 2020, 14:19, 150103021, BlueSol,

      •    1 May 2020, 16:03, 150103009, pvPlanner.

    • Sizing and selection of PV modules, charge controllers, batteries, inverters will be fulfilled by the students,

    • Students will conduct a feasibility assessment of their design along with investigating current credit alternatives provided by Turkish banks for small-scale renewable energy investments,

    • Students will prepare a presentation that responds all of the above criteria and clarifies each step in detail.
