ABSTRACT:

This paper discusses the implementation, performance, and cost-benefit analysis of a battery-less 1360w rooftop grid-tie solar plant. The solar power plant has been implemented at Institute of Science and Technology, Dhaka, Bangladesh. To, implement the 1360w rooftop solar plant, five 260w German-made polycrystalline solar panels, one 60w solar panel, an inverter, 1x6 rm (stranded round conductor) DC cable, and an energy meter has been used. Furthermore, the solar panel was tested in Standard Test Conditions (STC) and Nominal Operating Cell Temperature (NOTC) conditions before implementation. The test result shows a fill factor of 77.4% and has a maximum power of 257.280w which is very much similar to panel specification and implementation worthy. After implementation, it is seen that in a clear sky day with high intensity solar radiation, maximum of 1070.6w electricity has been generated by the solar panel at an instant. Moreover, 118.8 kWh of electricity has been generated in the month of August 2016. Cost-benefit analysis shows that for above 600 unit electricity consumption organization, the rooftop solar plant is very much profitable.

Keywords: Solar panel, Grid-Tie system, Standard Test Conditions (STC) and Fill Factor.
