It is therefore not surprising that the world is moving towards renewable energy sources as an alternative. INTRODUCTION Renewable energy system and advantages/limitation.Įlectrical energy needs have exponentially increased over the recent two centuries, this has also raised the global awareness of the adverse effects of conventional energy generation methods like hydro-electric, thermal, geothermal and nuclear.

#HOMER PRO MICROGRID ADDING GEOTHERMAL SOFTWARE#
HOMER is an effective software design suite (tool) for a photovoltaic system as it offers a comprehensive library of solar and energy system components and their characteristics. It is aimed that the net cost of this system in comparison with cost benefits will be established. The study will apply HOMER software to design a complete photovoltaic system with the requisite components. This paper aims to study the feasibility of an independent (standalone) solar system in providing electrical energy needs for a setup of a 25kw load. We are also required to provide a comprehensive description of the system labeling components, their characteristics (electrical) cost, reasons for choosing the components and the parameters used while factoring them on. This project is tasked in designing a 25kw solar system using HOMER. This is because they are environmentally friendly and a renewable source of energy. Olar systems are gaining traction worldwide as alternative energy options. Jan Feb Mar Apr May Jun Jul Aug Sep Oct Nov Dec
