In this study, the design of the components in the
system was carried out in order to meet the energy of a stand-alone farm house
in Bilecik city only by a photovoltaic (PV) system. Firstly, the loads to be
used in the farm house have been determined and it has been calculated that the
average energy consumption of the house is 5.58 kWh per day. It was determined
that it would be appropriate to use OPzS batteries in the system in order not
to have power outage even if there is no solar radiation for 4 days. Under
these conditions, it was estimated that 28 batteries 2 OPzS 100 model and 12 V
values would be needed in the system. Since the farm house is thought to be
used during the whole year, PV panels are estimated to be located at the tilt
angle of 40° on the roof, which is the latitude of the city. It has been
calculated that 12 PV panels with Per Light 100 Wp PLM-100P/12 model should be
used for the system. It has been proposed to use a central inverter system for
the design and it is calculated that the inverter should be at least 6 kW
power.
