Abstract

Currently, power generation using solar PV source is in advance stage in India. Government policies and subsidies attract citizens of India to install solar PV system at their commercial and domestic places. Some of the design models and tariffs are also very favorable for them, such as RESCO and CAPEX. To cope with the world in the field of power generation using renewable sources, Integral University opt a RESCO model to install 1 MW rooftop grid-interactive solar PV system. In this paper, a feasibility study of 500kWp is done under adverse weather condition, i.e., in every month of January for last 3 years because maximum variation of temperature and insolation takes place in this month and that is why the system generates minimum amount of energy. Comparison of real data through SCADA with solar PVGIS and PVSYST is also presented in this paper with the complete description of installed system and detailed results at different temperature and insolation at the end.
