Abstract

In the present study an intelligent, adaptive solar photovoltaic (PV) power supply system integrated with grid/DG supply has been proposed to minimize the use of DG source being used as an alternative standby source during grid off period in a grid connected rural house. The design aspect of components of PV system such as PV sizing, Battery and Converter (Inverter) etc has been described for varying load energy requirement. The prototype unit has been developed for a rural house against max load requirement of 2400Wh. Performance of system were carried out to verify design objective and operational feature of the system.
