Grid connected solar PV system design and calculation by using PV∗SOL premium simulation tool for campus hostels of RTU Kota

This paper present a study for solar PV system designing and calculation for Hostel buildings in the campus of Rajasthan Technical University(RTU), Kota, Rajasthan, India. This study shows a 234 kW grid connected solar photovoltaic system, can generate sufficient amount of electrical power as compare to consumption and mitigate the energy consumption from grid supply as well as reduce the grid dependence. Financial analysis of these systems by assuming some parameters is also done in this study.
