PROJECT MANAGEMENT ASSIGNMENT

Project Statement:- Community Shared Solar Energy Program

Project Objective:- The project focuses on delivering affordable and sustainable solar energy to
small communities by installing shared solar panels in underutilized areas such as the rooftops of
community centers, schools, or factories. This energy will be shared among local households and
businesses, helping to lower electricity bills and encourage the use of renewable energy.

Project Components
Phase 1: Project Initiation

•Definition:- In this stage, the project concept is formed, objectives are established, and essential
elements such as stakeholders, scope, and feasibility are outlined.

•Feasibility Study:- Identify communities facing high energy costs and suitable locations for
solar panel installations.

•Scope:- Create a plan to install 50 solar panels in the pilot phase, benefiting 100 households.

•Stakeholders:- Involve community leaders, local households, installation companies, and local
government.

•Business Case:- Aim to reduce electricity costs by 30% while supporting sustainability
initiatives.

•Statement of Work:- Provide a detailed plan for panel installation, energy distribution, and
maintenance schedules.

Phase 2: Project Planning

•Definition:- This step focuses on developing a comprehensive plan that includes timelines,
budgets, tasks, and strategies to meet the project objectives.

•Timeline:- Allocate 6 months for the pilot implementation.

•Goals:- Install 50 solar panels and distribute energy to 100 households.


•Budget Plan:- Estimated budget of $25,000

 Solar Panels (50 panels x $300)- $15,000


 Installation Costs (labor, permits) -$5,000
 Energy Distribution Equipment- $2,000
 Marketing and Community Training- $1,000
 Monitoring Software- $1,000

•Risk Management:- Prepare strategies for potential weather delays, community pushback, or
technical issues.

•Communication Plan:- Keep stakeholders informed with regular updates through meetings and
newsletters.

Phase 3: Project Execution

•Definition:- Here, the actual work takes place, and the plans are put into action to achieve the
project's goals.

•Task Management:- Prepare sites, install panels, connect energy systems, and conduct training
sessions for households.

•Collaboration:- Partner with a solar panel provider and hire local electricians for the
installation process.

•Risk Mitigation:- Set aside additional time and budget to address any installation challenges.

Phase 4: Monitoring and Controlling

•Definition:- This phase ensures the project remains on course by monitoring progress,
managing resources, and resolving any challenges that arise.

•Tracking Progress:- Utilize a Gantt chart to keep track of installation milestones.

•Quality Control:- Conduct inspections of installed panels and test their energy output.

•Resource Management:- Regularly review financial expenditures and make adjustments for
any unexpected costs.
Phase 5: Project Closure

•Definition:- The final stage involves wrapping up the project, delivering the final products,
evaluating results, and gathering insights for future initiatives.

•Handover:- Transfer maintenance duties to a local technician team.

•Impact Report:- Provide a summary of cost savings and environmental benefits.

Conclusion:-

The Community Shared Solar Energy Program is an innovative initiative aimed at making
renewable energy both accessible and affordable for small communities. By using shared solar
panels, this program helps lower electricity costs for households while encouraging
environmental sustainability. With thoughtful planning, efficient execution, and active
community participation, the pilot phase can act as a blueprint for future growth. This initiative
not only meets energy demands but also raises awareness about the advantages of solar energy,
setting the stage for a greener and more self-sufficient future.
