Abstract

It is seen that the damage to the environment has increased with the use of fossil fuels around the world. It is known that studies continue to minimize the damage to the environment with alternative energy generation methods. Recently, it is seen that generating electrical energy using solar energy, known as clean energy, has an important place. With the developing semiconductor technologies, the use of photovoltaic systems is increasing day by day. The aim of this study is to estimate the amount of energy that will be produced by simulating and modeling the performance of PV (Photovoltaic) systems using PVsyst and PV*SOL programs before the Photovoltaic systems are installed in the region. In the study, grid-connected roof system modeling was made in Bakırköy district of Istanbul province. In the modeling of the system, a total of 90 solar panels were placed on an area of 114.9 m2 , in East and West directions. In total, it is predicted that 17.1 kW of energy will be obtained when the system is used. In the system design, the avoided CO₂ emission is calculated as 8,856 kg/year and the amortization period is calculated as 7.2 years. When the programs are used, the analysis of the system is made before the implementation and it is seen that time and cost savings are achieved.
