DETAILED PROJECT REPORT FOR GRID INTERACTIVE ROOF TOP

SOLAR PHOTOVOLTAIC POWER PLANT AT OM SAKTHI HOSPITAL

ERODE
Executive summary
The proposed Roof Top Solar Photovoltaic Power Plant at Om Sakthi Hospital would utilize vacant
area available of about 350 sq. m. we use 210 sq.m spaces on the terrace of the South side of the
building. The SPV power plant with proposed capacity of 20 kWp would be connected to grid. No
battery storage has been provided. It would meet partial load of the building during day time. The
grid connected SPV project would be a demonstration plant to harness renewable energy and the
data on generation would be utilized for analysis of the various aspects of operation as also that of
availability of power.

The 20 kWp SPV power plant is estimated to afford annual energy feed of 36.5 MWh considering
efficiency of the solar module as 15.1%, Inverter as 98 % and losses as 3% in the DC and AC system.

The SPV Power Plant is estimated to cost Rs. 22 lakhs.

Inverter
1. The DC power produced is fed to inverter for conversion into AC.
2. The output of the inverter must synchronize automatically its AC output to the exact
AC voltage and frequency of the grid.
3. Inverter Efficiency of 98.3% is considered in the PV system.

Protection and Controls:

1. Inverter shall be provided with islanding protection to isolate it from the grid in case of
no supply, under voltage and over voltage conditions so that in no case there is any
chance of accident.
2. In addition to above, PV systems shall be provided with adequate rating fuses, fuses on
inverter input side (DC) as well as output side (AC) side for overload and short circuit
protection and disconnecting switches to isolate the DC and AC system for maintenances
are needed.
3. Fuses of adequate rating shall also be provided in each solar array module to protect
them against short circuit.

INTEGRATION OF PV POWER WITH GRID:

The output power from SPV would be fed to the inverter which converts DC produced by SPV array
to AC and feeds it into the main electricity grid after synchronization. In case of grid failure, or low
or high voltage, solar PV system shall be out of synchronization and shall be disconnected from the
grid. Once the DG set comes into service PV system shall again be synchronized with DG supply and
load requirement would be met to the extent of availability of power.
 Inverter shall have the software and controls capable of operating the complete system for safe
and efficient operation and includes the Islanding protection, Over voltage/ under voltage
protection, Ground fault /short circuit protection system, communication equipment such as
modems, web box etc, DC reverse polarity protection, Grid monitoring of all the phases & pole
sensitive residual current monitoring unit, protection against voltage fluctuations in the grid &
protection against internal faults in the power conditioner, operational errors and switching
transients etc.
