Solar Plant for 100 kW Installation
Introduction:
The solar plant plays a pivotal role in our daily activities. The degree of development of a country is measured by the amount of utilization of energy by human beings. Energy demand is increasing day by day due to the increase in population, urbanization, and industrialization.
The world's fossil fuel supply will be depleted in a few hundred years. The rate of energy consumption increasing, and supply is depleting resulting in inflation and energy shortage. This is called the energy crisis. Hence alternative or renewable sources of energy have to be developed to meet future energy requirements.
The principle of solar power plants is quite simple. They consist of a field of solar photovoltaic modules connected in series and parallel and connected to one or more inverters.
Solar energy is directly transformed into electricity and then connected to the Low Voltage distribution grid in the academic area of IIT KGP.

This solar plant mainly consists of
- 400 Solar Panels
- DC String Array and Combiner Box
- Two Inverters (PCU)
- AC Distribution Box
- Plant AC Energy Meter
- Data Acquisition System
The total solar PV array installed capacity is 100k W. Individual PV module rating is 250 watts. The PV array consists of framed multi-crystalline. A suitable number of solar PV modules are connected in the series string and a suitable number of series strings are connected in parallel to formulate a series-parallel array.
The maximum DC output voltage of the array is nearly 600 V. It consists of impact-resistant low iron and high transmission toughened glass.

Good post. I learn something new and challenging on websites I stumbleupon every day.
It's always exciting to read through articles from other writers and use a
little something from their sites.
If you have the LinkedIn app installed on your telephone,
you will get a prompt that asks, “Open in LinkedIn?
Search for jobs at colleges and universities in the Upper Midwest.
It's appropriate time to make some plans for the longer term and it is time to be happy.
I have read this put up and if I may just I wish to counsel
you few interesting things or tips. Maybe you could write subsequent articles referring to
this article. I want to learn even more issues about it!
Tremendous things here. I am very happy to peer your article.
Thanks a lot and I'm taking a look forward to contact you.
Will you kindly drop me a e-mail?
